Hi Linus,

Please pull:

      xen: drop all the special iomap pte paths.
      xen: use mmu_update for xen_set_pte_at()
      xen: condense everything onto xen_set_pte
      vmalloc: remove vmalloc_sync_all() from alloc_vm_area()
      xen: make a pile of mmu pvop functions static
      xen: use normal virt_to_machine for ptes
      xen/mmu: remove all ad-hoc stats stuff
      Use arbitrary_virt_to_machine() to deal with ioremapped pmd updates.
      Use arbitrary_virt_to_machine() to deal with ioremapped pud updates.
      xen: fix compile without CONFIG_XEN_DEBUG_FS

This is all Xen-internal cleanup stuff.  The change to mm/vmalloc.c is
to remove a pointless vmalloc_sync_all() from alloc_vm_area(). 
alloc_vm_area() is only called by Xen code, though there's nothing
Xen-specific about it.

Thanks,
    J
