Merge tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm
Pull kvm fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
"Unless anything comes from the ARM side, this should be the last pull
request for this release - and it's mostly documentation:
- Document the interaction between KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL and halt_poll_ns
- s390: fix multi-epoch extension in nested guests
- x86: fix uninitialized variable on nested triple fault"
* tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm:
KVM: Document the interaction between KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL and halt_poll_ns
KVM: Move halt-polling documentation into common directory
KVM: x86: fix uninitialized variable use on KVM_REQ_TRIPLE_FAULT
KVM: s390: vsie: Fix the initialization of the epoch extension (epdx) field
