Michael,

Do you want to take this through the vhost tree?  It technically fixes a KVM
bug, but this obviously touches far more vhost code than KVM code, and the
patch that needs to go into 6.17 doesn't touch KVM at all.
Can this be squeezed into 6.17?  I know it's very late in the cycle, and that the
KVM bug is pre-existing, but the increased impact of the bug is new in 6.17 and I
don't want 6.17 to release without a fix.
To clarify you just mean 1/3, yes?
Correct, 2 and 3 aren't urgent.
