commit 6697b2cf69d4363266ca47eaebc49ef13dabc1c9 upstream.

ACPI 6.1 clarified that multi-interface dimms require multiple control
region entries (DCRs) per dimm.  Previously we were assuming that a
control region is only present when block-data-windows are present.
This implementation was done with an eye to be compatibility with the
looser ACPI 6.0 interpretation of this table.

1/ When coalescing the memory device (MEMDEV) tables for a single dimm,
coalesce on device_handle rather than control region index.

2/ Whenever we disocver a control region with non-zero block windows
re-scan for block-data-window (BDW) entries.

We may need to revisit this if a DIMM ever implements a format interface
outside of blk or pmem, but that is not on the foreseeable horizon.

<title>nfit: Adjust for different _FIT and NFIT headers</title>

<id>6b577c9d772c45448aec784ec235cea228b4d3ad</id>
<content type='text'>
When support for _FIT was added, the code presumed that the data
returned by the _FIT method is identical to the NFIT table, which
starts with an acpi_table_header.  However, the _FIT is defined
to return a data in the format of a series of NFIT type structure
entries and as a method, has an acpi_object header rather tahn
an acpi_table_header.

To address the differences, explicitly save the acpi_table_header
from the NFIT, since it is accessible through /sys, and change
the nfit pointer in the acpi_desc structure to point to the
table entries rather than the headers.

<title>nfit: Account for table size length variation</title>

The size of NFIT tables don't necessarily match the size of the
data structures that we use for them.  For example, the NVDIMM
Control Region Structure table is shorter for a device with
no block control windows than for a device with block control windows.
Other tables, such as Flush Hint Address Structure and the Interleave
Structure are variable length by definition.

Account for the size difference when comparing table entries by
using the actual table size from the table header if it's less
than the structure size.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "Outside of the new ACPI-NFIT hot-add support this pull request is more
  notable for what it does not contain, than what it does.  There were a
  handful of development topics this cycle, dax get_user_pages, dax
  fsync, and raw block dax, that need more more iteration and will wait
  for 4.5.

  The patches to make devm and the pmem driver NUMA aware have been in
  -next for several weeks.  The hot-add support has not, but is
  contained to the NFIT driver and is passing unit tests.  The coredump
  support is straightforward and was looked over by Jeff.  All of it has
  received a 0day build success notification across 107 configs.

  Summary:

   - Add support for the ACPI 6.0 NFIT hot add mechanism to process
     updates of the NFIT at runtime.

   - Teach the coredump implementation how to filter out DAX mappings.

   - Introduce NUMA hints for allocations made by the pmem driver, and
     as a side effect all devm allocations now hint their NUMA node by
     default"

Add a .notify callback to the acpi_nfit_driver that gets called on a
hotplug event. From this, evaluate the _FIT ACPI method which returns
the updated NFIT with handles for the hot-plugged NVDIMM.

Iterate over the new NFIT, and add any new tables found, and
register/enable the corresponding regions.

In the nfit test framework, after normal initialization, update the NFIT
with a new hot-plugged NVDIMM, and directly call into the driver to
update its view of the available regions.
