Subject: [GIT PULL] NVDIMM for 6.7

Hi Linus, please pull from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm.git tags/libnvdimm-for-6.7

... to get updates to the nvdimm tree.  They are a mix of bug fixes and updates
to interfaces used by nvdimm.

Bug fixes include:
	Fix a sleep during spinlock in PREEMPT_RT kernels when getting a BTT
		lane
	Check for kstrdup memory failure in region probe
	Use the correct variables in the nvdimm_badblocks_populate() kdoc block

Updates to interfaces include:
	Use devm_kstrdup to manage memory better
	Allow class structures to be declared at build time
	Start using __counted_by to help with bounds checking
	Remove use of the deprecated strncpy

They have all been in -next for more than a week with no reported issues.
