Merge tag 'vfio-for-v3.6' of git://github.com/awilliam/linux-vfio

Pull VFIO core from Alex Williamson:
 "This series includes the VFIO userspace driver interface for the 3.6
  kernel merge window.  This driver is intended to provide a secure
  interface for device access using IOMMU protection for applications
  like assignment of physical devices to virtual machines.

  Qemu will be the first user of this interface, enabling assignment of
  PCI devices to Qemu guests.  This interface is intended to eventually
  replace the x86-specific assignment mechanism currently available in
  KVM.

  This interface has the advantage of being more secure, by working with
  IOMMU groups to ensure device isolation and providing it's own
  filtered resource access mechanism, and also more flexible, in not
  being x86 or KVM specific (extensions to enable POWER are already
  working).

  This driver is originally the work of Tom Lyon, but has since been
  handed over to me and gone through a complete overhaul thanks to the
  input from David Gibson, Ben Herrenschmidt, Chris Wright, Joerg
  Roedel, and others.  This driver has been available in linux-next for
  the last month."

Paul Mackerras says:
 "I would be glad to see it go in since we want to use it with KVM on
  PowerPC.  If possible we'd like the PowerPC bits for it to go in as
  well."
