This is my current queue of patches to add acceleration of TCE
updates in KVM.

This is based on Linus'es tree sha1 ae50dfd61665.

Please comment. Thanks.

Changes:
v9:
* renamed few exported symbols in 04/10
* reforked various objects reference counting in 10/10

v8:
* kept fixing oddities with error handling in 10/10

v7:
* added realmode's WARN_ON_ONCE_RM in arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_64_vio_hv.c

v6:
* reworked the last patch in terms of error handling and parameters checking

v5:
* replaced "KVM: PPC: Separate TCE validation from update" with
"KVM: PPC: iommu: Unify TCE checking"
* changed already reviewed "powerpc/iommu/vfio_spapr_tce: Cleanup iommu_table disposal"
* reworked "KVM: PPC: VFIO: Add in-kernel acceleration for VFIO"
* more details in individual commit logs

v4:
* addressed comments from v3
* updated subject lines with correct component names
* regrouped the patchset in order:
	- powerpc fixes;
	- vfio_spapr_tce driver fixes;
	- KVM/PPC fixes;
	- KVM+PPC+VFIO;
* everything except last 2 patches have "Reviewed-By: David"

v3:
* there was no full repost, only last patch was posted

v2:
* 11/11 reworked to use new notifiers, it is rather RFC as it still has
a issue;
* got 09/11, 10/11 to use notifiers in 11/11;
* added rb: David to most of patches and added a comment in 05/11.
