Subject: [GIT PULL] s390 patches for 4.7-rc5

Hi Linus,

please pull from the 'for-linus' branch of

	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux.git for-linus

to receive the following updates:

Two more bugs fixes for 4.7:
- A KVM regression introduced with the pgtable.c code split
- A perf issue with two hardware PMUs using a shared event context

Christian Borntraeger (1):
      KVM: s390/mm: Fix CMMA reset during reboot

Hendrik Brueckner (1):
      s390/cpum_cf: use perf software context for hardware counters
