Subject: [GIT PULL] Second batch of KVM changes for 4.4

Linus,

The following changes since commit a3eaa8649e4c6a6afdafaa04b9114fb230617bb1:

  KVM: VMX: Fix commit which broke PML (2015-11-05 11:34:11 +0100)

are available in the git repository at:

  KVM: x86: rename update_db_bp_intercept to update_bp_intercept (2015-11-10 12:06:25 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Three changes:

- x86: work around two nasty cases where a benign exception occurs while
another is being delivered.  The endless stream of exceptions causes an
infinite loop in the processor, which not even NMIs or SMIs can interrupt;
in the virt case, there is no possibility to exit to the host either.

- x86: support for Skylake per-guest TSC rate.  Long supported by AMD,
the patches mostly move things from there to common arch/x86/kvm/ code.

- generic: remove local_irq_save/restore from the guest entry and exit
paths when context tracking is enabled.  The patches are a few months
old, but we discussed them again at kernel summit.  Andy will pick up
from here and, in 4.5, try to remove it from the user entry/exit paths.
