Paolo or Radim,

Please do a pull from my kvm-ppc-fixes-4.19-3 tag to get one commit
that fixes a host crash that I have seen when a page fault on a radix
guest on POWER9 happens concurrently with a THP collapse operation.
The bug is only in 4.19-rc and hence the fix does not need to be
backported to any stable kernel tree.

Thanks,
Paul.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Third set of PPC KVM fixes for 4.19

One patch here, fixing a potential host crash introduced (or at least
exacerbated) by a previous fix for corruption relating to radix guest
page faults and THP operations.
