All of these patches are intended for 4.18:
- Patches 1-5 are bug fixes.
- Patch 6 changes the GPL comment. It is actually required just to
remove the maintainers list from the source file (since it has
changed).
- Patch 7 is an update to the maintainer list.
This patch-set addresses minor issues and bugs in the VMware balloon
driver. Patches 1-5 address bugs that were *not* reported by customers,
but we would like to get them to 4.18 if possible.
Patches 1-4 are cc'd to stable. Patch 5 might be too big to be
considered for stable.
We will send separately later a patch-set with new features to be set on
top of this set, which will be intended for 4.19.
v2->v3: * Removing empty lines (Greg)
* Removing the GPL message entirely (Greg)
v1->v2: * Reordering patches to have bug fixes first (Greg)
* Fixing SPDX tag
* Cc'ing stable when appropriate
