No offense taken! It's a good question. I also have a tested backport
of the necessary changes to zesty's 4.10 kernel, I'm just awaiting
upstream acceptance of Vijay's patch before doing a final round of
testing and sending a PR to the kernel team.

WRT the patches impacting !arm, the only one I see here is
kvm-all-Pass-an-error-object-to-kvm_device_access.patch, which impacts
the error handling of kvm_device_access(). I'd be happy coordinate
appropriate testing on other architectures to mitigate the risk there.
