Subject: [GIT PULL] xen: fixes for 4.19-rc2

Linus,

Please git pull the following tag:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip.git for-linus-4.19b-rc2-tag

xen: fixes for 4.19-rc2

It contains:
- minor cleanup avoiding a warning when building with new gcc
- a patch to add a new sysfs node for Xen frontend/backend drivers
  to make it easier to obtain the state of a pv device
- two fixes for 32-bit pv-guests to avoid intermediate L1TF vulnerable
  PTEs

Thanks.

Juergen
