Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"Two fixes:
- a regression fix for the multiple-pmem-namespace-per-region support
added in 4.9. Even if an existing environment is not using that
feature the act of creating and a destroying a single namespace
with the ndctl utility will lead to the proliferation of extra
unwanted namespace devices.
- a fix for the error code returned from the pmem driver when the
memcpy_mcsafe() routine returns -EFAULT. Btrfs seems to be the only
block I/O consumer that tries to parse the meaning of the error
code when it is non-zero.
Neither of these fixes are critical, the namespace leak is awkward in
that it can cause device naming to change and complicates debugging
namespace initialization issues. The error code fix is included out of
caution for what other consumers might be expecting -EIO for block I/O
errors"

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
