The patch titled
KVM: add MSR based hypercall API
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
kvm-add-msr-based-hypercall-api.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: KVM: add MSR based hypercall API
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx>
This adds a special MSR based hypercall API to KVM. This is to be used by
paravirtual kernels and virtual drivers.
