At over 200 commits, covering almost all supported architectures, this
was a pretty active cycle for KVM.  Changes include:

- a lot of s390 changes: optimizations, support for migration,
  GDB support and more

- ARM changes are pretty small: support for the PSCI 0.2 hypercall
  interface on both the guest and the host (the latter acked by Catalin)

- initial POWER8 and little-endian host support

- support for running u-boot on embedded POWER targets

- pretty large changes to MIPS too, completing the userspace interface
  and improving the handling of virtualized timer hardware

- for x86, a larger set of changes is scheduled for 3.17.  Still,
  we have a few emulator bugfixes and support for running nested
  fully-virtualized Xen guests (para-virtualized Xen guests have
  always worked).  And some optimizations too.

The only missing architecture here is ia64.  It's not a coincidence
that support for KVM on ia64 is scheduled for removal in 3.17.
