Please pull a handful of fixes for 6.7-rcN (hopefully N=5). These have all
been in -next for a week or so.
The following changes since commit ffc253263a1375a65fa6c9f62a893e9767fbebfa:

KVM: x86: Remove 'return void' expression for 'void function' (2023-12-01 08:14:27 -0800)
----------------------------------------------------------------
KVM fixes for 6.7-rcN:
- When checking if a _running_ vCPU is "in-kernel", i.e. running at CPL0,
get the CPL directly instead of relying on preempted_in_kernel, which
is valid if and only if the vCPU was preempted, i.e. NOT running.
- Set .owner for various KVM file_operations so that files refcount the
KVM module until KVM is done executing _all_ code, including the last
few instructions of kvm_put_kvm(). And then revert the misguided
attempt to rely on "struct kvm" refcounts to pin KVM-the-module.
- Fix a benign "return void" that was recently introduced.
----------------------------------------------------------------

KVM: x86: Get CPL directly when checking if loaded vCPU is in kernel mode
KVM: x86: Remove 'return void' expression for 'void function'
Sean Christopherson (2):
KVM: Set file_operations.owner appropriately for all such structures
Revert "KVM: Prevent module exit until all VMs are freed"
