Please add parantheses when referencing functions in shortlogs and changelogs,
I find it tremendously helpful.

Same nits about about pronouns. In a similar vein, be explicit about what "more"
mean; I had no idea what "more" meant until the second sentence. E.g.

The vcpu->arch.pio* fields still need to be filled even when the PIO is
handled in-kernel as __emulator_pio_in() is always followed by
complete_emulator_pio_in(). But after fixing that, it will be possible to
to only populate the vcpu->arch.pio* fields on userspace exits.

Oof, passing NULL for @data and then overwriting it below is gross. It also makes
@in redundant for this one patch. Might be worth adding a comment, even though
it's transient?
