Pull kvm fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
 "This is a bit on the large side, mostly due to two changes:

   - Changes to disable some broken PMU virtualization (see below for
     details under "x86 PMU")

   - Clean up SVM's enter/exit assembly code so that it can be compiled
     without OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD. This fixes a warning "Unpatched
     return thunk in use. This should not happen!" when running KVM
     selftests.

  Everything else is small bugfixes and selftest changes:

   - Fix a mostly benign bug in the gfn_to_pfn_cache infrastructure
     where KVM would allow userspace to refresh the cache with a bogus
     GPA. The bug has existed for quite some time, but was exposed by a
     new sanity check added in 6.9 (to ensure a cache is either
     GPA-based or HVA-based).

   - Drop an unused param from gfn_to_pfn_cache_invalidate_start() that
     got left behind during a 6.9 cleanup.

   - Fix a math goof in x86's hugepage logic for
     KVM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES that results in an array overflow
     (detected by KASAN).

   - Fix a bug where KVM incorrectly clears root_role.direct when
     userspace sets guest CPUID.

   - Fix a dirty logging bug in the where KVM fails to write-protect
     SPTEs used by a nested guest, if KVM is using Page-Modification
     Logging and the nested hypervisor is NOT using EPT.

  x86 PMU:

   - Drop support for virtualizing adaptive PEBS, as KVM's
     implementation is architecturally broken without an obvious/easy
     path forward, and because exposing adaptive PEBS can leak host LBRs
     to the guest, i.e. can leak host kernel addresses to the guest.

   - Set the enable bits for general purpose counters in
     PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL at RESET time, as done by both Intel and AMD
     processors.

   - Disable LBR virtualization on CPUs that don't support LBR
     callstacks, as KVM unconditionally uses
     PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_CALL_STACK when creating the perf event, and
     would fail on such CPUs.

  Tests:

   - Fix a flaw in the max_guest_memory selftest that results in it
     exhausting the supply of ucall structures when run with more than
     256 vCPUs.

   - Mark KVM_MEM_READONLY as supported for RISC-V in
     set_memory_region_test"
