This is starting to look good. Any chance you or Geoff could repost the
whole series? This would help getting a better view of the whole thing,
and hopefully put it on track for 4.3.
Thanks,

So this has now been a whole month since I reviewed this, and I haven't
seen any repost of this series. Any hope to see this within a reasonable
time frame? Or is it considered dead already?
Thanks,
M.

I was hoping to do some work on updating the base kexec patches
last week, but all my time was taken up but other things. I'll
try to start on it this week.

I also have some update, and so will submit my patchset
after Geoff. Pratyush's patch should also be synced.

Please coordinate between all of you and post a consistent series. It
was painful enough to review the KVM stuff independently of the rest of
the series, so I'd really really want to see a single series that
addresses the issue end to end.
Thanks,
M.
