Paolo,
It seems like this patch ("[PATCH 2/2] kvm: x86: fix stale mmio cache")
is ready to go. Is there anything blocking it from being merged?

(It should be fine to merge this on its own, independent of the fix
discussed in "[PATCH 1/2] KVM: fix cache stale memslot info with
correct mmio generation number", https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/8/14/62.)
