Hi Linus, please pull from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm libnvdimm-fixes
...to receive, a regression fix, new unit test infrastructure and a build fix.
* The regression fix addresses support for the new NVDIMM label storage area access commands (_LSI, _LSR, and _LSW). The Intel specific version of these commands communicated the "Device Locked" status on the label- storage-information command. However, these new commands (standardized in ACPI 6.2) communicate the "Device Locked" status on the label- storage-read command, and the driver was missing the indication. Reading from locked persistent memory is similar to reading unmapped PCI memory space, returns all 1's.
* Unit test infrastructure is added to regression test the "Device Locked" detection failure.
* A build fix is included to allow the "of_pmem" driver to be built as a module and translate an Open Firmware described device to its local numa node.
