PATCH v3 -> PATCH v4: ================== - Rebased on top of Sean's new page allocator patch series v2 [1] This allowed to drop and patch-2 since it will now come from Sean's v2. - Addressed review comments from Sean - squashed patches 6-10 in patch-1 of this. - Dropped patch-5 to print vcpu_id when KVM_CREATE_VCPU ioctl fails. - Added additional patch-3 to this series to allow dirty_log_test to run on all big-endian machines.

There were few powerpc kvm kernel fixes which were identified as part of this work. I will send those patches separately as those anyway needs to go in separately. <pasted snippet of cover letter from previous versions> ======================================================= Hi All, This series primarly adds KVM selftests support for powerpc (64-bit, BookS, radix MMU). This patch series is originally Nick's work. I have mainly only rebased it on the latest upstream tree. Since the rebase required few changes to all the four patches (Patch 1-4), I have dropped the earlier Acked-by from Michael Ellerman. Since the last series was posted three years ago [1], I am resetting the version to RFC. This rebase was done as part of a larger effort to improve the selftests infrastructure for Linux on PowerPC tree. Thanks to Harsh and Maddy for their help on this.
