Subject: [GIT PULL] dax for 5.3

Hi Linus, please pull from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm tags/dax-for-5.3

...to receive the fruits of a bug hunt in the fsdax implementation
with Willy and a small feature update for device-dax. These have
appeared in a -next release with no reported issues.

  dax: Fix missed wakeup with PMD faults (2019-07-16 19:30:59 -0700)

----------------------------------------------------------------
- Fix a hang condition that started triggering after the Xarray
  conversion of fsdax in the v4.20 kernel.

- Add a 'resource' (root-only physical base address) sysfs attribute to
  device-dax instances to correlate memory-blocks onlined via the kmem
  driver with a given device instance.
