• [PR #​17863][fossedihelm] Fixed multi-device VFIO passthrough VMs failing to start with "cannot limit locked memory" by scaling virt-handler's memlock rlimit to account for per-device memory locking, matching libvirt's calculation introduced in v8.7.0.
• [PR #​17823][kubevirt-bot] Fix VirtualMachineStuckOnNode and VMCannotBeEvicted alerts failing during live migration due to duplicate kubevirt_vmi_info series
• [PR #​17727][mhenriks] Gate PCI topology on machine type, not just architecture
