Paolo Bonzini 8c9244af4d KVM SVM changes for 6.8:
- Revert a bogus, made-up nested SVM consistency check for TLB_CONTROL.
 
  - Advertise flush-by-ASID support for nSVM unconditionally, as KVM always
    flushes on nested transitions, i.e. always satisfies flush requests.  This
    allows running bleeding edge versions of VMware Workstation on top of KVM.
 
  - Sanity check that the CPU supports flush-by-ASID when enabling SEV support.
 
  - Fix a benign NMI virtualization bug where KVM would unnecessarily intercept
    IRET when manually injecting an NMI, e.g. when KVM pends an NMI and injects
    a second, "simultaneous" NMI.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
