I’m hesitant to provide the patches as a series of patches, since one of them: VMCI: Use set_page_dirty_lock() when unregistering guest memory is marked as fixing an original checkin, and should be considered for backporting, whereas the others are either not important to backport or rely on other recent changes. However, if formatting them as a series of misc fixes is preferred, I’ll do that.
