      Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
       "A 4.16 regression fix, three fixes for -stable, and a cleanup fix:
      
         - During the merge window support for the new ACPI NVDIMM Platform
           Capabilities structure disabled support for "deep flush", a
           force-unit- access like mechanism for persistent memory. Restore
           that mechanism.
      
         - VFIO like RDMA is yet one more memory registration / pinning
           interface that is incompatible with Filesystem-DAX. Disable long
           term pins of Filesystem-DAX mappings via VFIO.
      
         - The Filesystem-DAX detection to prevent long terms pins mistakenly
           also disabled Device-DAX pins which are not subject to the same
           block- map collision concerns.
      
         - Similar to the setup path, softlockup warnings can trigger in the
           shutdown path for large persistent memory namespaces. Teach
           for_each_device_pfn() to perform cond_resched() in all cases.
      
         - Boaz noticed that the might_sleep() in dax_direct_access() is stale
           as of the v4.15 kernel.
      
        These have received a build success notification from the 0day robot,
        and the longterm pin fixes have appeared in -next. However, I recently
        rebased the tree to remove some other fixes that need to be reworked
        after review feedback.

      Dan Williams authored
      The cond_resched() currently in the setup path needs to be duplicated in
      the teardown path. Rather than require each instance of
      for_each_device_pfn() to open code the same sequence, embed it in the
      helper.

      libnvdimm: re-enable deep flush for pmem devices via fsync() · 5fdf8e5b
      Dave Jiang authored
      Re-enable deep flush so that users always have a way to be sure that a
      write makes it all the way out to media. Writes from the PMEM driver
      always arrive at the NVDIMM since movnt is used to bypass the cache, and
      the driver relies on the ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) mechanism to
      flush write buffers on power failure. The Deep Flush mechanism is there
      to explicitly write buffers to protect against (rare) ADR failure.  This
      change prevents a regression in deep flush behavior so that applications
      can continue to depend on fsync() as a mechanism to trigger deep flush
      in the filesystem-DAX case.

      vfio: disable filesystem-dax page pinning · 94db151d
      Dan Williams authored
      Filesystem-DAX is incompatible with 'longterm' page pinning. Without
      page cache indirection a DAX mapping maps filesystem blocks directly.
      This means that the filesystem must not modify a file's block map while
      any page in a mapping is pinned. In order to prevent the situation of
      userspace holding of filesystem operations indefinitely, disallow
      'longterm' Filesystem-DAX mappings.
      
      RDMA has the same conflict and the plan there is to add a 'with lease'
      mechanism to allow the kernel to notify userspace that the mapping is
      being torn down for block-map maintenance. Perhaps something similar can
      be put in place for vfio.
      
      Note that xfs and ext4 still report:
      
         "DAX enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk"
      
      ...at mount time, and resolving the dax-dma-vs-truncate problem is one
      of the last hurdles to remove that designation.
