To pick up the changes from:

  2b27924bb1d4 ("KVM: nVMX: always use early vmcs check when EPT is disabled")

That causes this object in the tools/perf build process to be rebuilt:

  CC       /tmp/build/perf/arch/x86/util/kvm-stat.o

But it isn't using VMX_ABORT_ prefixed constants, so no change in
behaviour.

This silences this perf build warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/vmx.h' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/vmx.h'

<title>jump_label: move 'asm goto' support test to Kconfig</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label".

The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined
like this:

  #if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) &amp;&amp; defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL)
  # define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
  #endif

We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then
make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO.

Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will
match to the real kernel capability.

Pull KVM updates from Radim Krčmář:
 "ARM:
   - Improved guest IPA space support (32 to 52 bits)

   - RAS event delivery for 32bit

   - PMU fixes

   - Guest entry hardening

   - Various cleanups

   - Port of dirty_log_test selftest

  PPC:
   - Nested HV KVM support for radix guests on POWER9. The performance
     is much better than with PR KVM. Migration and arbitrary level of
     nesting is supported.

   - Disable nested HV-KVM on early POWER9 chips that need a particular
     hardware bug workaround

   - One VM per core mode to prevent potential data leaks

   - PCI pass-through optimization

   - merge ppc-kvm topic branch and kvm-ppc-fixes to get a better base

  s390:
   - Initial version of AP crypto virtualization via vfio-mdev

   - Improvement for vfio-ap

   - Set the host program identifier

   - Optimize page table locking

  x86:
   - Enable nested virtualization by default

   - Implement Hyper-V IPI hypercalls

   - Improve #PF and #DB handling

   - Allow guests to use Enlightened VMCS

   - Add migration selftests for VMCS and Enlightened VMCS

   - Allow coalesced PIO accesses

   - Add an option to perform nested VMCS host state consistency check
     through hardware

   - Automatic tuning of lapic_timer_advance_ns

   - Many fixes, minor improvements, and cleanups"
