Linus Torvalds 98ac9a608d Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
 "nvdimm fixes for v4.8, two of them are tagged for -stable:

   - Fix devm_memremap_pages() to use track_pfn_insert().  Otherwise,
     DAX pmd mappings end up with an uncached pgprot, and unusable
     performance for the device-dax interface.  The device-dax interface
     appeared in 4.7 so this is tagged for -stable.

   - Fix a couple VM_BUG_ON() checks in the show_smaps() path to
     understand DAX pmd entries.  This fix is tagged for -stable.

   - Fix a mis-merge of the nfit machine-check handler to flip the
     polarity of an if() to match the final version of the patch that
     Vishal sent for 4.8-rc1.  Without this the nfit machine check
     handler never detects / inserts new 'badblocks' entries which
     applications use to identify lost portions of files.

   - For test purposes, fix the nvdimm_clear_poison() path to operate on
     legacy / simulated nvdimm memory ranges.  Without this fix a test
     can set badblocks, but never clear them on these ranges.

   - Fix the range checking done by dax_dev_pmd_fault().  This is not
     tagged for -stable since this problem is mitigated by specifying
     aligned resources at device-dax setup time.

  These patches have appeared in a next release over the past week.  The
  recent rebase you can see in the timestamps was to drop an invalid fix
  as identified by the updated device-dax unit tests [1].  The -mm
  touches have an ack from Andrew"
