Have you already picked these? Or can you still wait for v4? I can send
send separate patches too if it is too late to drop them. I had one
minor fixup and was waiting for Vitaly's changes to get merged as he
wanted me to add checks on the guest exposed cpuid bits before handling
XMM args.

Apologies for the trouble.
