I don't really think it's quite ready.  I don't have time to sort through
the giant steaming pile for now, but there are a few things here:

 - stong NAK for the linker wrapping abuse in the test module
 - you must run the ioctls past the linux-api list at least
 - please make sure the legacy e820 changes are properly tested.  I could
   take of it, but not until Wednesday next week as I'm travelling right
   now.

Also a little nitpick on naming:  why is this still nd instead of the
widely used nvdimm?  Also as very little of it is related to block drivers
and a lot is management it should be under drivers/ not drivers/block/
I think.
