Are they inter-dependent?  I thought your patches depended on Anup's -
not the other way around?

If my assumption is correct, I think we can make sure to send the pull
request to kvm/next early and ask Catalin to pull in kvm/next before
pulling your changes.

I'm cc'ing both Catalin and Paolo here for their advice.
