  virtio_console: Stop doing DMA on the stack (2016-09-09 21:12:45 +0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
virtio: fixes for 4.8

This includes a couple of bugfixs for virtio.

The virtio console patch is actually also
in x86/tip targeting 4.9 because it helps vmap
stacks, but it also fixes IOMMU_PLATFORM which
was added in 4.8, and it seems important not to
ship that in a broken configuration.
