Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Enable DSM pass thru for root functions

The new ACPI 6.2 spec has added new NVDIMM root DSM functions
that managibility and test software needs to call.

This patch set enables the calling of root functions DSMs via the
pass thru mechanism.

Details

__nd_ioctl:
Check pass thru functions against nd_cmd_clear_to_send.

acpi_nfit_init_dsms:
Set additional bits in cmd_mask for new functions.

ndctl.h:
Define data structure for the new 6.2 functions.
Add new function names to nvdimm_bus_cmd_name.

  acpi, nfit: Enable DSM pass thru for root functions.
