FYI, I rebased misc to v6.12-rc5, as patches in another series had already been
taken through the tip tree. New hashes:
[1/5] KVM: x86: drop x86.h include from cpuid.h
https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux/commit/e52ad1ddd0a3
[2/5] KVM: x86: Route non-canonical checks in emulator through emulate_ops
https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux/commit/16ccadefa295
[3/5] KVM: x86: Add X86EMUL_F_MSR and X86EMUL_F_DT_LOAD to aid canonical checks
https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux/commit/c534b37b7584
[4/5] KVM: x86: model canonical checks more precisely
https://github.com/kvm-x86/linux/commit/9245fd6b8531
