Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: "These fixes are all tagged for -stable and have received a build success notification from the kbuild robot. - NVDIMM namespaces, configured to enforce 1GB alignment, fail to initialize on platforms that mis-align the start or end of the physical address range. - The Linux implementation of the BTT (Block Translation Table) is incompatible with the UEFI 2.7 definition of the BTT format. The BTT layers a software atomic sector semantic on top of an NVDIMM namespace. Linux needs to be compatible with the UEFI definition to enable boot support or any pre-OS access of data on a BTT enabled namespace. - A fix for ACPI SMART notification events, this allows a userspace monitor to register for health events rather than poll. This has been broken since it was initially merged as the unit test inadvertently worked around the problem. The urgency for fixing this during the -rc series is driven by how expensive it is to poll for this data (System Management Mode entry)" * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: libnvdimm, btt: Fix an incompatibility in the log layout libnvdimm, btt: add a couple of missing kernel-doc lines libnvdimm, dax: fix 1GB-aligned namespaces vs physical misalignment libnvdimm, pfn: fix start_pad handling for aligned namespaces acpi, nfit: fix health event notification
