    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull xen updates from David Vrabel:
     "Features and fixes for 4.8-rc0:
    
       - ACPI support for guests on ARM platforms.
       - Generic steal time support for arm and x86.
       - Support cases where kernel cpu is not Xen VCPU number (e.g., if
         in-guest kexec is used).
       - Use the system workqueue instead of a custom workqueue in various
         places"
