Progress:
 * VIRT-65 [QEMU upstream maintainership]
  + more code review and assembly of the last pull request for
    softfreeze for QEMU 5.2
  + noticed that our AArch32 Neon emulation doesn't work on big-endian
    hosts. RTH fixed most of this and I wrote a couple of patches to
    fix bugs in some insns that were only noticeable once we got out
    of the "anything working on vectors is broken" state :-)
  + looked at trying to get our documentation to build with Sphinx 3,
    which has made some annoying incompatible changes to the markup
    it accepts

 * VIRT-364 [QEMU support for ARMv8.1-M extensions]
  + started implementation of new insns VSCCLRM, CLRM, and
    the new FP sysregs accessed via VLDR/VSTR

KVM Forum (virtual conference) was this week. Some interesting talks:
 * Will Deacon on what Google is doing to introduce KVM into Android
 * Marc Zyngier/Christoffer Dall on a virtual-only interrupt controller
   that's less of a big lump of code to put on a security boundary than
   a full-on GIC
 * Salil Mehta on the current problems with doing Arm vCPU hotplug in KVM
