Pull more KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"x86 KVM changes:
- The usual accuracy improvements for nested virtualization
- The usual round of code cleanups from Sean
- Added back optimizations that were prematurely removed in 5.2 (the
bare minimum needed to fix the regression was in 5.3-rc8, here
comes the rest)
- Support for UMWAIT/UMONITOR/TPAUSE
- Direct L2->L0 TLB flushing when L0 is Hyper-V and L1 is KVM
- Tell Windows guests if SMT is disabled on the host
- More accurate detection of vmexit cost
- Revert a pvqspinlock pessimization"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
