I think we decided that it was a bit premature to merge them, but we
will likely be able to do that later on.

I've now build-tested master (f5b7769eb0) in a few configurations
(particularly KVM + !KVM) for arch/arm.  The main risk there is missing
new hooks called by the core virt/kvm/arm code.

For arm64 I've now done some basic boot/run/KVM testing as appropriate
on Juno and the Arm fast model for various configs (defconfig,
ARM64_SVE=n, KVM=n).

For the KVM/SVE interactions in particular, the merge looks good to me.

Cheers
