Kernel: Jailhouse 0.11 and LLVMpipe/Mesa


-
Jailhouse 0.11 released
Long time, no release: Version 0.11 is finally available. Several last-minute issues delayed this, though that's not a real excuse for having so many months since the last one. Time-wise, this should have been two releases. Changeset-wise, we are in the same dimension as usual: 140 commits, 185 files changed, 4057 insertions, 1437 deletions.
