Hi Linus,

Please pull these two important arm64 fixes ahead of the 6.16 release.

The first fixes a regression introduced during the merge window where
the KVM UUID (which is used to advertise KVM-specific hypercalls for
things like time synchronisation in the guest) was corrupted thanks to
an endianness bug introduced when converting the code to use the
UUID_INIT() helper.

The second fixes a stack-pointer corruption issue during context-switch
which has been observed in the wild when taking a pseudo-NMI with
shadow call stack enabled.

Please pull.

Cheers,

Will
