Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] ACPI 6.1 update for NFIT Control Region Structure

ACPI 6.1, Table 5-133, updates NVDIMM Control Region Structure
as follows.
 - Valid Fields, Manufacturing Location, and Manufacturing Date
   are added from reserved range.  No change in the structure size.
 - IDs defined as SPD values are arrays of bytes.  The spec 
   clarified that they need to be represented as arrays of bytes
   as well.

Patch 1 changes 'struct acpi_nfit_control_region' and the NFIT driver to
comply ACPI 6.1.
Patch 2 adds a new sysfs file "id" to show NVDIMM ID defined in ACPI 6.1.
Patch 3 changes the nfit test driver.

v2:
 - Remove 'mfg_location' and 'mfg_date'. (Dan Williams)
 - Rename 'unique_id' to 'id' and make this change as a separate patch.
