Subject: [PATCH 0/2] KVM: x86: Fix dirty logging of emulated atomics

Fix a bug in KVM's emulator where the target page of an atomic write isn't
marked dirty, and enhance the dirty_log_test selftest to serve as
a regression test by conditionally doing forced emulation of guest writes.

Note, the selftest depends on several patches that are sitting in
`kvm-x86 pmu`, so I'll likely take the selftest through that branch (eww).

Sean Christopherson (2):
  KVM: x86: Mark target gfn of emulated atomic instruction as dirty
  KVM: selftests: Test forced instruction emulation in dirty log test
    (x86 only)
