[GIT PULL] libnvdimm fixes for 4.8

[Williams, Dan J]

Hi Linus, please pull from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm libnvdimm-fixes

...to receive the following:

- (4) fixes for +ACI-flush hint+ACI- support.  Flush hints are addresses
advertised by the ACPI 6+- NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table) that
when written and fenced guarantee that writes pending in platform write
buffers (outside the cpu) have been flushed to media. +AKA-They might also
be used by hypervisors as a trigger condition to flush guest-persistent 
memory ranges to storage.

Fix a potential data corruption issue, a broken definition of the hint
array, a wrong allocation size for the unit test implementation of the
flush hint table, and missing NULL check in an error path. +AKA-The unit
test, while it did not prevent these bugs from being merged, at least
triggered occasional crashes in advance of production usages.

- Fix handling of ACPI DSM error status results. +AKA-The DSM mechanism
allows communication with platform and memory device firmware. +AKA-We
correctly parse known errors, but were silently ignoring others. +AKA-Fix
it to consistently fail any command with a non-zero status return that
we otherwise do not interpret / handle.

These changes have a build success notification from the 0day robot and
have appeared in a -next release over the past week.

    nvdimm: fix PHYS+AF8-PFN/PFN+AF8-PHYS mixup
    
    nd+AF8-activate+AF8-region() iomaps any hint addresses required when activating
    a region. To prevent duplicate mappings it checks the PFN of the hint to
    be mapped against the PFNs of the already mapped hints. Unfortunately it
    doesn't convert the PFN back into a physical address before passing it
    to devm+AF8-nvdimm+AF8-ioremap(). Instead it applies PHYS+AF8-PFN a second time
    which ends about as well as you would imagine.

    tools/testing/nvdimm: fix allocation range for mock flush hint tables
    
    Commit 480b6837aa57 +ACI-nvdimm: fix PHYS+AF8-PFN/PFN+AF8-PHYS mixup+ACI- identified
    that we were passing an invalid address to devm+AF8-nvdimm+AF8-ioremap(). With
    that fixed it exposed a bug in the memory reservation size for flush
    hint tables.  Since we map a full page we need to mock a full page of
    memory to back the flush hint table entries.

    libnvdimm: fix devm+AF8-nvdimm+AF8-memremap() error path
    
    The internal alloc+AF8-nvdimm+AF8-map() helper might fail, particularly if the
    memory region is already busy.  Report request+AF8-mem+AF8-region() failures and
    check for the failure.

    nfit: fail DSMs that return non-zero status by default
    
    For the DSMs where the kernel knows the format of the output buffer and
    originates those DSMs from within the kernel, return -EIO for any
    non-zero status.  If the BIOS is indicating a status that we do not know
    how to handle, fail the DSM.

    libnvdimm, region: fix flush hint table thinko
    
    The definition of the flush hint table as:
    
    	void +AF8AXw-iomem +ACo-flush+AF8-wpq+AFs-0+AF0AWw-0+AF0AOw-
    
    ...passed the unit test, but is broken as flush+AF8-wpq+AFs-0+AF0AWw-1+AF0- and
    flush+AF8-wpq+AFs-1+AF0AWw-0+AF0- refer to the same entry.  Fix this to use a helper that
    calculates a slot in the table based on the geometry of flush hints in
    the region.  This is important to get right since virtualization
    solutions use this mechanism to trigger hypervisor flushes to platform
    persistence.
