Subject[PATCH v3 0/7] vmw_balloon: addressing bugs and issues
Date
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
