No, this should be merged through the KVM tree.  Please Cc the KVM
maintainers before offering to apply a patch that formally belongs to
another tree.

I don't care if Paul merges the patch or Radim and I do, but we're
getting lots of unnecessary conflicts from patches that go through the
main architecture tree and that shouldn't really happen.  Please let's
keep some discipline, as I want to minimize the number of conflicts that
reach Linus (and 4.8 is going to be *bad* in this respect, with both PPC
and s390 having conflicts between the KVM and arch tree).

In particular this patch would indeed have a conflict, because you have

+#define KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM 129

but cap numbers 129 and 130 are already taken.  So whoever applies it
should bump the number to 131.
