* * * This series of VMCI linux upstreaming patches include latest udpate from VMware to address Greg's and all other's code review comments. Summary of changes: - Rebase our linux kernel tree from v3.5 to v3.7. - Fix all checkpatch warnings and errors. Fix some checkpatch with -strict errors. This addresses Greg's comment: On 15 Nov 2012

This patchset adds support for virtual IOMMU to the VMCI module. We switch to DMA consistent mappings for queuepair and doorbell pages that are passed to the device, which allows the module to work in the presence of vIOMMU/VT-d.
