Paolo,
any chance to ack these changes?

Thanks.

Question is now how to proceed:

Patch 1-4 are s390/kvm specific. I am s390/kvm maintainer, so I can hereby Ack them.
Patch 5-10 are perf specific
Patch 11 is s390/kvm/perf specific and needs both patch series as a base.

I see several variants for the next submission:

a: all patches via Paolos KVM tree
b: all patches via perf tree  (e.g. via Jiri)
c: via both trees. (e.g. I prepare a git branch based on 3.15-rc1 so that during next merge window the common history should make most things work out fine)
d: patch 1-4 via KVM, patch 5-10 via perf, patch 11 after both trees are merged into Linus
