    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull libnvdimm and dax updates from Dan Williams:
     "There were multiple touches outside of drivers/nvdimm/ this round to
      add cross arch compatibility to the devm_memremap_pages() interface,
      enhance numa information for persistent memory ranges, and add a
      zero_page_range() dax operation.
    
      This cycle I switched from the patchwork api to Konstantin's b4 script
      for collecting tags (from x86, PowerPC, filesystem, and device-mapper
      folks), and everything looks to have gone ok there. This has all
      appeared in -next with no reported issues.
    
      Summary:
    
       - Add support for region alignment configuration and enforcement to
         fix compatibility across architectures and PowerPC page size
         configurations.
    
       - Introduce 'zero_page_range' as a dax operation. This facilitates
         filesystem-dax operation without a block-device.
    
       - Introduce phys_to_target_node() to facilitate drivers that want to
         know resulting numa node if a given reserved address range was
         onlined.
    
       - Advertise a persistence-domain for of_pmem and papr_scm. The
         persistence domain indicates where cpu-store cycles need to reach
         in the platform-memory subsystem before the platform will consider
         them power-fail protected.
    
       - Promote numa_map_to_online_node() to a cross-kernel generic
         facility.
    
       - Save x86 numa information to allow for node-id lookups for reserved
         memory ranges, deploy that capability for the e820-pmem driver.
    
       - Pick up some miscellaneous minor fixes, that missed v5.6-final,
         including a some smatch reports in the ioctl path and some unit
         test compilation fixups.
    
       - Fixup some flexible-array declarations"
