Subject: [PATCH v3 0/7] bugfix and optimize for drivers/nvdimm

v2 --> v3:
1. Fix spelling error of patch 1 subject: memmory --> memory
2. Add "Reviewed-by: Oliver O'Halloran <oohall@...il.com>" into patch 1
3. Rewrite patch descriptions of Patch 1, 3, 4
4. Add 3 new trivial patches 5-7, I just found that yesterday.
5. Unify all "subsystem" names to "libnvdimm:"

v1 --> v2:
1. Add Fixes for Patch 1-2
2. Slightly change the subject and description of Patch 1
3. Add a new trivial Patch 4, I just found that yesterday.

v1:
I found a memleak when I learned the drivers/nvdimm code today. And I also
added a sanity check for priv->bus_desc.provider_name, because strdup()
maybe failed. Patch 3 is a trivial source code optimization.


Zhen Lei (7):
  libnvdimm: fix memory leaks in of_pmem.c
  libnvdimm: add sanity check for provider_name in
    of_pmem_region_probe()
  libnvdimm: simplify walk_to_nvdimm_bus()
  libnvdimm: reduce an unnecessary if branch in nd_region_create()
  libnvdimm: reduce an unnecessary if branch in nd_region_activate()
  libnvdimm: make sure EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(nvdimm_flush) close to its
    function
  libnvdimm: slightly simplify available_slots_show()
