Pull virtio update from Rusty Russell:
 "Some nice cleanups, and even a patch my wife did as a "live" demo for
  Latinoware 2012.

  There's a slightly non-trivial merge in virtio-net, as we cleaned up
  the virtio add_buf interface while DaveM accepted the mq virtio-net
  patches."

Add a simple serial connection driver called
VIRTIO_ID_RPROC_SERIAL (11) for communicating with a
remote processor in an asymmetric multi-processing
configuration.

This implementation reuses the existing virtio_console
implementation, and adds support for DMA allocation
of data buffers and disables use of tty console and
the virtio control queue.

Refactoring the splice functionality by unifying the approach for
sending scatter-lists and regular buffers. This simplifies
buffer handling and reduces code size. Splice will now allocate
a port_buffer and send_buf() and free_buf() can always be used
for any buffer.

Avoid the more cpu expensive kzalloc when allocating buffers.
Originally kzalloc was intended for isolating the guest from
the host by not sending random guest data to the host. But device
isolation is not yet in place so kzalloc is not really needed.

   - exynos: IPP subsystem support (image post proc), HDMI
   - nouveau: display class reworking, nv20-&gt;40 z compression
   - ttm: start of locking fixes, rcu usage for lookups,
   - core: documentation updates, docbook integration, monotonic clock
     usage, move from connector to object properties"
