Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "libnvdimm updates for the latest ACPI and UEFI specifications. This
  pull request also includes new 'struct dax_operations' enabling to
  undo the abuse of copy_user_nocache() for copy operations to pmem.

  The dax work originally missed 4.12 to address concerns raised by Al.

  Summary:

   - Introduce the _flushcache() family of memory copy helpers and use
     them for persistent memory write operations on x86. The
     _flushcache() semantic indicates that the cache is either bypassed
     for the copy operation (movnt) or any lines dirtied by the copy
     operation are written back (clwb, clflushopt, or clflush).

   - Extend dax_operations with ->copy_from_iter() and ->flush()
     operations. These operations and other infrastructure updates allow
     all persistent memory specific dax functionality to be pushed into
     libnvdimm and the pmem driver directly. It also allows dax-specific
     sysfs attributes to be linked to a host device, for example:
     /sys/block/pmem0/dax/write_cache

   - Add support for the new NVDIMM platform/firmware mechanisms
     introduced in ACPI 6.2 and UEFI 2.7. This support includes the v1.2
     namespace label format, extensions to the address-range-scrub
     command set, new error injection commands, and a new BTT
     (block-translation-table) layout. These updates support inter-OS
     and pre-OS compatibility.

   - Fix a longstanding memory corruption bug in nfit_test.

   - Make the pmem and nvdimm-region 'badblocks' sysfs files poll(2)
     capable.

   - Miscellaneous fixes and small updates across libnvdimm and the nfit
     driver.

  Acknowledgements that came after the branch was pushed: commit
  6aa734a2f38e ("libnvdimm, region, pmem: fix 'badblocks'
  sysfs_get_dirent() reference lifetime") was reviewed by Toshi Kani
