Subject: [PATCH 0/3] acpi, nfit: nvdimm notification support + tests

ACPI 6.1 added an "NFIT Health Event Notification" for nvdimm devices.
When this fires, system software is expected to issue a DSM to retrieve
the latest health values.  For the NFIT driver this notification
arrives as an event on the sysfs 'flags' attribute for an nfit/nvdimm
device.  The 'flags' attribute reflects the "NVDIMM State Flags" of the
"5.2.25.3 NVDIMM Region Mapping Structure", and when read indicates if
the platform supports sending health events.
