Subject: [PATCH v12 00/20] KVM: xen: update shared_info and vcpu_info handling

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

This series has one small fix to what was in v11 [1]:

* KVM: xen: re-initialize shared_info if guest (32/64-bit) mode is set

The v11 patch failed to set the return code of the ioctl if the mode
was not actually changed, leading to a spurious failure.

This version of the series also contains a new bug-fix to the pfncache
code from David Woodhouse.

David Woodhouse (1):
  KVM: pfncache: rework __kvm_gpc_refresh() to fix locking issues

Paul Durrant (19):
  KVM: pfncache: Add a map helper function
  KVM: pfncache: remove unnecessary exports
  KVM: xen: mark guest pages dirty with the pfncache lock held
  KVM: pfncache: add a mark-dirty helper
  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: separate initialization of shared_info cache and content
  KVM: xen: re-initialize shared_info if guest (32/64-bit) mode is set
  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
  KVM: xen: split up kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast()
  KVM: xen: don't block on pfncache locks in kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast()
  KVM: pfncache: check the need for invalidation under read lock first
  KVM: xen: allow vcpu_info content to be 'safely' copied
