Subject: [GIT PULL] libnvdimm fixes for v5.2-rc1

Hi Linus, please pull from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
tags/libnvdimm-fixes-5.2-rc1

...to receive just a small collection of fixes this time around. The
new virtio-pmem driver is nearly ready, but some last minute
device-mapper acks and virtio questions made it prudent to await v5.3.
Other major topics that were brewing on the linux-nvdimm mailing list
like sub-section hotplug, and other devm_memremap_pages() reworks will
go upstream through Andrew's tree.

These have seen multiple -next releases with no reported issues.

  drivers/dax: Allow to include DEV_DAX_PMEM as builtin (2019-05-07
07:48:06 -0700)

----------------------------------------------------------------
libnvdimm fixes 5.2-rc1

* Fix a long standing namespace label corruption scenario when
  re-provisioning capacity for a namespace.

* Restore the ability of the dax_pmem module to be built-in.

* Harden the build for the 'nfit_test' unit test modules so that the
  userspace test harness can ensure all required test modules are
  available.
