Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The bulk of this has been in multiple -next releases. There were a few
  late breaking fixes and small features that got added in the last
  couple days, but the whole set has received a build success
  notification from the kbuild robot.

  Change summary:

   - Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the
     parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been
     reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block
     devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that
     namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new
     interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of
     namespace modes or state.

     This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1
     Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error"
     requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus
     devices.

   - Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted
     by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for
     dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations.
     This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are
     related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for
     other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent
     memory support.

   - 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is
     available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger
     memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would
     otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR
     (asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event.
     Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from
     surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally,
     fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for
     -stable.

   - ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to
     add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM
     payload debug available by default, and various fixes.

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - A major update for DM cache that reduces the latency for deciding
   whether blocks should migrate to/from the cache. The bio-prison-v2
   interface supports this improvement by enabling direct dispatch of
   work to workqueues rather than having to delay the actual work
   dispatch to the DM cache core. So the dm-cache policies are much more
   nimble by being able to drive IO as they see fit. One immediate
   benefit from the improved latency is a cache that should be much more
   adaptive to changing workloads.

 - Add a new DM integrity target that emulates a block device that has
   additional per-sector tags that can be used for storing integrity
   information.

 - Add a new authenticated encryption feature to the DM crypt target
   that builds on the capabilities provided by the DM integrity target.

 - Add MD interface for switching the raid4/5/6 journal mode and update
   the DM raid target to use it to enable aid4/5/6 journal write-back
   support.

 - Switch the DM verity target over to using the asynchronous hash
   crypto API (this helps work better with architectures that have
   access to off-CPU algorithm providers, which should reduce CPU
   utilization).

 - Various request-based DM and DM multipath fixes and improvements from
   Bart and Christoph.

 - A DM thinp target fix for a bio structure leak that occurs for each
   discard IFF discard passdown is enabled.

 - A fix for a possible deadlock in DM bufio and a fix to re-check the
   new buffer allocation watermark in the face of competing admin
   changes to the 'max_cache_size_bytes' tunable.

 - A couple DM core cleanups.

Arrange for dm to lookup the dax services available from member devices.

->direct_access() method to more closely align with the dax_operations
->direct_access() calling convention.

A dm-crypt on dm-integrity device incorrectly advertises an integrity
profile on the DM crypt device.  It can be seen in the files
"/sys/block/dm-*/integrity/*" that both dm-integrity and dm-crypt target
advertise the integrity profile.  That is incorrect, only the
dm-integrity target should advertise the integrity profile.

A general problem in DM is that if we have a DM device that depends on
another device with an integrity profile, the upper device will always
advertise the integrity profile, even when the target driver doesn't
support handling integrity data.

Most targets don't support integrity data, so we provide a whitelist of
targets that support it (linear, delay and striped).  The targets that
support passing integrity data to the lower device are marked with the
flag DM_TARGET_PASSES_INTEGRITY.  The DM core will now advertise
integrity data on a DM device only if all the targets support the
integrity data.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:

 - Replace pcommit with ADR / directed-flushing.

   The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is
   deprecated.  Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement
   either ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm.

   ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers
   to the memory controller on a power-fail event.

   Flush addresses are defined in ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware
   Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure: "Flush Hint Address Structure".
   A flush hint is an mmio address that when written and fenced assures
   that all previous posted writes targeting a given dimm have been
   flushed to media.

 - On-demand ARS (address range scrub).

   Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks
   in pmem devices.  When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the
   media to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a
   re-scrub at any time.

 - Support for the Microsoft DSM (device specific method) command
   format.

 - Support for EDK2/OVMF virtual disk device memory ranges.

 - Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem.

This moves the call to blkdev_ioctl and the argument checking to DM core
code, and only leaves a callout to find the block device to operate on
in the targets.  This simplifies the code and allows us to pass through
ioctl-like command using other methods in the next patch.

Also split out a helper around calling the prepare_ioctl method that
will be reused for persistent reservation handling.

Pull device mapper update from Mike Snitzer:

 - a couple small cleanups in dm-cache, dm-verity, persistent-data's
   dm-btree, and DM core.

 - a 4.1-stable fix for dm-cache that fixes the leaking of deferred bio
   prison cells

 - a 4.2-stable fix that adds feature reporting for the dm-stats
   features added in 4.2

 - improve DM-snapshot to not invalidate the on-disk snapshot if
   snapshot device write overflow occurs; but a write overflow triggered
   through the origin device will still invalidate the snapshot.

 - optimize DM-thinp's async discard submission a bit now that late bio
   splitting has been included in block core.

 - switch DM-cache's SMQ policy lock from using a mutex to a spinlock;
   improves performance on very low latency devices (eg. NVMe SSD).

 - document DM RAID 4/5/6's discard support

[ I did not pull the slab changes, which weren't appropriate for this
  tree, and weren't obviously the right thing to do anyway.  At the very
  least they need some discussion and explanation before getting merged.

  Because not pulling the actual tagged commit but doing a partial pull
  instead, this merge commit thus also obviously is missing the git
  signature from the original tag ]
