Hi all,

After merging the kvm-x86 tree, today's linux-next build
(arm64 kselftest) failed like this:

arm64/vgic_its_save.c: In function 'alloc_64k':
arm64/vgic_its_save.c:289:21: error: too many arguments to function
'vm_phy_pages_alloc'
289 | gpa_t gpa = vm_phy_pages_alloc(vm, nr * pages_per_64k, gpa_base,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from arm64/vgic_its_save.c:24:
include/kvm_util.h:1062:21: note: declared here
1062 | static inline gpa_t vm_phy_pages_alloc(struct kvm_vm *vm, size_t nr_pages,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Caused by commits

36a062568ea80 (KVM: selftests: Take the memory region type, not memslot, in page allocators)
6c28a0d7cf125 (KVM: selftests: Automatically pick min_gpa for allocations based on region type)

interacting with commit

6f182db39fb00 (KVM: arm64: selftests: Add ITS table save tests)

from the kvm-arm tree. I have applied the fixup below and can carry as
needed:
