Linus Torvalds 93173b5bf2 Small release, the most interesting stuff is x86 nested virt improvements.
x86: userspace can now hide nested VMX features from guests; nested
 VMX can now run Hyper-V in a guest; support for AVX512_4VNNIW and
 AVX512_FMAPS in KVM; infrastructure support for virtual Intel GPUs.
 
 PPC: support for KVM guests on POWER9; improved support for interrupt
 polling; optimizations and cleanups.
 
 s390: two small optimizations, more stuff is in flight and will be
 in 4.11.
 
 ARM: support for the GICv3 ITS on 32bit platforms.
