From: Paul Durrant <pdurrant@...zon.com>

This is a minimal update to version 8 of the series [1]. The only material
change is in "pfncache: allow a cache to be activated with a fixed
(userspace) HVA".

  KVM: pfncache: remove KVM_GUEST_USES_PFN usage
  KVM: pfncache: stop open-coding offset_in_page()
  KVM: pfncache: include page offset in uhva and use it consistently
  KVM: pfncache: allow a cache to be activated with a fixed (userspace)
    HVA
  KVM: xen: allow shared_info to be mapped by fixed HVA
  KVM: xen: allow vcpu_info to be mapped by fixed HVA
  KVM: selftests / xen: map shared_info using HVA rather than GFN
  KVM: selftests / xen: re-map vcpu_info using HVA rather than GPA
  KVM: xen: advertize the KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_SHARED_INFO_HVA capability
