Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "This adds a user for the new 'bytes-remaining' updates to
  memcpy_mcsafe() that you already received through Ingo via the
  x86-dax- for-linus pull.

  Not included here, but still targeting this cycle, is support for
  handling memory media errors (poison) consumed via userspace dax
  mappings.

  Summary:

   - DAX broke a fundamental assumption of truncate of file mapped
     pages. The truncate path assumed that it is safe to disconnect a
     pinned page from a file and let the filesystem reclaim the physical
     block. With DAX the page is equivalent to the filesystem block.
     Introduce dax_layout_busy_page() to enable filesystems to wait for
     pinned DAX pages to be released. Without this wait a filesystem
     could allocate blocks under active device-DMA to a new file.

   - DAX arranges for the block layer to be bypassed and uses
     dax_direct_access() + copy_to_iter() to satisfy read(2) calls.
     However, the memcpy_mcsafe() facility is available through the pmem
     block driver. In order to safely handle media errors, via the DAX
     block-layer bypass, introduce copy_to_iter_mcsafe().

   - Fix cache management policy relative to the ACPI NFIT Platform
     Capabilities Structure to properly elide cache flushes when they
     are not necessary. The table indicates whether CPU caches are
     power-fail protected. Clarify that a deep flush is always performed
     on REQ_{FUA,PREFLUSH} requests"

-Description:
-		(RO) Size of a write request to a DIMM that will not incur a
-		read-modify-write cycle at the memory controller.
-
-		When the nfit driver initializes it runs an ARS (Address Range
-		Scrub) operation across every pmem range. Part of that process
-		involves determining the ARS capabilities of a given address
-		range. One of the capabilities that is reported is the 'Clear
-		Uncorrectable Error Range Length Unit Size' (see: ACPI 6.2
-		section 9.20.7.4 Function Index 1 - Query ARS Capabilities).
-		This property indicates the boundary at which the NVDIMM may
-		need to perform read-modify-write cycles to maintain ECC (Error
-		Correcting Code) blocks.
