I had to do some conflict resolution when applying Alex's 3.14 pull request, I'm glad it wasn't me who introduced the bug! :) Phew. This means that kvm/next is also broken right now for PPC. I can merge the patches into kvm/next too (in addition to sending them to Linus for 3.14). Would that help in any way?
