OK, I understand now what happened, which is this: when I sent out
that patch, I inadvertently included a hunk of extra code as a result
of not cleaning up a rebase properly.  The next patch in the series
removed the extraneous hunk, but Alex didn't apply the next patch.

We can either do this revert, or apply a patch removing the extra
hunk, but one or the other should go in for 3.14 since it's quite
broken as it is (that is, HV-mode KVM on powerpc is broken).

Paolo, do you have a preference about revert vs. fix?  Are you happy
to take what Aneesh sent (in which case please add my acked-by and
perhaps edit the commentary to say how the problem arose), or do you
want a freshly-prepared patch, and if so against which branch?

Thanks,
Paul.
