Yah, I'd feel much more at ease if you took the KVM cleanups so that the
patchset is slimmed down and then we cat concentrate on reviewing the
remaining pile. I haven't gone through it, I know tglx did look at this and
with vacations upcoming we might not be ready for the merge window...

I can see how far I can get but you could give me that topic branch just in
case and I'll see what I can stick ontop if/when I get to it.

Thx.
