Subject: [GIT PULL] libnvdimm for 4.18

Hi Linus, please pull from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm tags/libnvdimm-for-4.18

...to receive the first part of the libnvdimm / persistent memory
support update for 4.18. These patches have all been in -next for
several releases. The 'DAX DMA vs Truncate' work has had extra soak
time as it nearly missed 4.17.

This pull request 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. There is a minor collision with bdev_dax_supported()
reworks that you pulled from xfs, and another minor collision of the
vm_fault_t conversion you received from Andrew. A potential merge
resolution is here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvd
imm/nvdimm.git/log/?h=libnvdimm-for-4.18-merge

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

  Merge branch 'for-4.18/mcsafe' into libnvdimm-for-next (2018-06-08 15:16:44 -0700)

----------------------------------------------------------------
libnvdimm for 4.18

* 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.
