Right, that fix should preferably be committed first.

... but I obviously missed this one here again :-/

There are also these compiler warnings left:

lib/ucall.c: In function ‘get_ucall’:
lib/ucall.c:145:3: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break
strict-aliasing rules [-Wstrict-aliasing]
   gva = *(vm_vaddr_t *)run->mmio.data;

x86_64/vmx_set_nested_state_test.c: In function
‘set_revision_id_for_vmcs12’:
x86_64/vmx_set_nested_state_test.c:78:2: warning: dereferencing
type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules [-Wstrict-aliasing]
  *(u32 *)(state->data) = vmcs12_revision;

... how do we want to handle such spots in the kvm selftest code?
Compile with -fno-strict-aliasing? Or fix it with type-punning through
unions?
