  * Merge with Debian;
    This fixes several CVEs that were reported against qemu 2.8 and also
    includes a few important functional backports (LP: #1667033); remaining
    changes:
    - add qemu-kvm init script and defaults file
      (d/qemu-system-common.qemu-kvm.*)
    - d/rules, d/qemu-kvm-init: add and install script loading kvm
      modules and handling /etc/default/qemu-kvm
    - qemu-system-common.preinst: add kvm group if needed
    - Enable nesting by default on intel.
      - set default module option
      - re-load kvm_intel.ko if it was loaded without nested=1
      - d/p/ubuntu/expose-vmx_qemu64cpu.patch: enable nested kvm by
        default in qemu64 cpu type.
    - Enable svm by default for qemu64 on amd
    - d/p/ubuntu/define-ubuntu-machine-types.patch, d/qemu-system-x86.NEWS:
      define distro machine types to ease future live vm migration (includes
      all former follow up fixes).
    - Make qemu-system-common depend on qemu-block-extra
    - Make qemu-utils depend on qemu-block-extra
    - s390x support
      - Create qemu-system-s390x package
      - Include s390-ccw.img firmware
    - qemu-system-common.postinst:
      - change acl placed by udev, and add udevadm trigger.
    - d/qemu-kvm-init, d/kvm.powerpc, d/control-in: check SMT on ppc64el
    - Several changes were applied but missing in the changelog so far
      - d/qemu-system-ppc.links provide usr/bin/qemu-system-ppc64le symlink
      - arch aware kvm wrapper
      - update VCS links
      - let qemu-utils recommend sharutils
      - disable x32 architecture
    - Enable seccomp for ppc64el
    - Enable numa support for s390x
    - d/qemu-system-common.qemu-kvm.init: fix lintian error type
      init.d-script-missing-dependency-on-remote_fs
    - d/qemu-system-common.postinst: fix lintian error type
      command-with-path-in-maintainer-script
    - Transition qemu-kvm to a systemd unit
    - d/qemu-kvm-init, d/kvm.powerpc ppc64el SMT check avoid unwanted output
    - d/qemu-kvm-init, d/kvm.powerpc ppc64el SMT check keep output local so
      that it shows up where the user expects (sytemctl status, kvm stdout)
    - d/qemu-kvm-init ppc64el warn on expected second level kvm-hv load failure
    - add arch aware kvm wrapper for s390x
  * Dropped Changes (in Debian now):
    - d/p/ubuntu/ctrl-a-b-fix-fb5e19d2.patch: char: fix ctrl-a b not working
    - d/control-in: change dependencies for fix of wrong acl for newly
      created device node on ubuntu
    - have qemu-system-arm suggest: qemu-efi; this should be a stronger
      relationship, but qemu-efi is still in universe right now.
    - Disable glusterfs (Universe dependency)
    - no more skip disable libiscsi on Ubuntu
    - d/rules, d/control-in: avoid people editing d/control
  * Added Changes:
    - d/control: bump libseccomp-dev dependency as enabling libseccomp for
      power makes 2.3 the minimum level.
