Michael,

series looks good for merging.
Patch
 [PATCH v8 7/8] tests: Add unit tests for the VM  Generation ID feature
needs updated seabios blob to make 'make check' happy
so we probably should merge/update seabios first
  [PATCH v5 0/5] QEMU: Add capability to write back fw_cfg address to QEMU

CCing Gerd and Kevin.
