Subject: [GIT PULL] KVM updates for Linux 2.6.21-rc2

Linus,

The following changes since commit 2ff7354fe888f46f6629b57e463b0a1eb956c02b:
  Eric W. Biederman (1):
        x86_64/i386 irq: Fix !CONFIG_SMP compilation

are found in the git repository at:

  git://kvm.qumranet.com/kvm.git#linus

The changes fall into three broad categories:
- initial kvm paravirtulization support
- the first batch of the stable userspace interface changes
- fixes, fixes, fixes

The userspace interface changes, while nontrivial, are crucially 
important as I'd like to freeze the non-paravirt userspace interface for 
2.6.21.  Unfortunately there are a few more changes of that nature pending.

Please exercise more than the usual care when pulling as I am very much 
a git newbie.

Ahmed S. Darwish (1):
      KVM: Use ARRAY_SIZE macro instead of manual calculation.

Andrew Morton (1):
      KVM: Move kvmfs magic number to <linux/magic.h>

      KVM: Per-vcpu inodes
      KVM: Bump API version

Ingo Molnar (2):
      KVM: add MSR based hypercall API
      KVM: Add host hypercall support for vmx

Jeremy Katz (1):
      KVM: Move virtualization deactivation from CPU_DEAD state to 
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE

Joerg Roedel (2):
      KVM: vmx: hack set_cr0_no_modeswitch() to actually do modeswitch
      KVM: SVM: intercept SMI to handle it at host level

Markus Rechberger (1):
      KVM: Use page_private()/set_page_private() apis

Uri Lublin (4):
      KVM: Add missing calls to mark_page_dirty()

      KVM: Remove write access permissions when dirty-page-logging is 
enabled
