Hi Viresh,

After discussing it internally, we think it would be better to drop the
patches related to KVM for now. In 4.4 KVM Arm not very mature and has
changed a lot since then.

If someone wants to backport the mitigations for KVM in 4.4, it should
be done as a separate series. The series is big enough as it is. For
now, the main point is to focus on the kernel itself.

Sorry you already went through some trouble to backport those. But
dropping will simply review and testing, and as mentioned, 4.4 KVM on
Arm is probably not worth the hassle.

Cheers,
