Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams: - Fix a crash that occurs at driver initialization if the memory region is already busy (request_mem_region() fails). - Fix a vma validation check that mistakenly allows a private device- dax mapping to be established. Device-dax explicitly forbids private mappings so it can guarantee a given fault granularity and backing memory type. Both of these fixes have soaked in -next and are tagged for -stable. * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: device-dax: fail all private mapping attempts device-dax: check devm_nsio_enable() return value
