Shuah, I think this should be in -next really soon to make sure
everything works fine for the v6.9 release, which is not currently the
case.  I cannot test against all kselftests though.  I would prefer to
let you handle this, but I guess you're not able to do so and I'll push
it on my branch without reply from you.  Even if I push it on my branch,
please push it on yours too as soon as you see this and I'll remove it
from mine.

Yes, please. Getting this into v6.9 is preferred,

Very strongly prefered for KVM selftests.  The negative impact on KVM isn't that
the bugs cause failures, it's that they cause false passes, which is far worse
(and why the bugs went unnoticed for most of the cycle).
