Subject: [PATCH 0/5]  KVM: x86: Clean up rmap zap helpers

Clean up the rmap helpers (mostly renames) to yield a more coherent set of
APIs, and to purge the irritating and inconsistent "rmapp" (p is for pointer)
nomenclature.

Patch 1 is a tangentially related fix for a benign bug.

Sean Christopherson (5):
  KVM: x86/mmu: Return a u64 (the old SPTE) from
    mmu_spte_clear_track_bits()
  KVM: x86/mmu: Rename rmap zap helpers to better show relationships
  KVM: x86/mmu: Remove underscores from __pte_list_remove()
  KVM: x86/mmu: Use innermost rmap zap helper when recycling rmaps
  KVM: x86/mmu: Drop the "p is for pointer" from rmap helpers
