Previously this series was two separate series:
 * Arch section support
   Adds the possibility for arch code to add custom section data.

 * s390 PV dump support
   Adds PV dump data to the custom arch sections.

I've chosen to merge them so it's easier to understand why the arch
section support has been implement the way it is.

Additionally I've added cleanup patches beforehand which clean up the
GuestPhysBlock usage.

v6:
	* Rebase after parts of the series have been pulled
	* Put the section header move into its own patch
	* Added freeing of s->elf_section_hdrs
	* Added missing false fields in the note arrays in arch_dump.c

v5:
	* Added a patch that moves the DumpState typedef and replaces
          the opaque pointers with properly typed ones
	* Removed the ELF header allocation since the codes has
          changed in a way that it's not needed anymore
	* Changed naming of dump_get_memblock_*() to dump_filter_memblock_*()
	* Removed various inline functions
	* Added a re-work of the filter variables


Janosch Frank (10):
  dump: Use a buffer for ELF section data and headers
  dump: Write ELF section headers right after ELF header
  dump: Reorder struct DumpState
  dump: Reintroduce memory_offset and section_offset
  dump: Add architecture section and section string table support
  s390x: Add protected dump cap
  s390x: Introduce PV query interface
  RFC: elf.h changes
  s390x: Add KVM PV dump interface
  s390x: pv: Add dump support

As far as I can see, all patches have been reviewed now ... Marc-André, do 
you want to pick this up for your "dump" branch, or shall I take it through 
the s390x tree?
