    Pull libnvdimm updayes from Vishal Verma:
     "You'd normally receive this pull request from Dan Williams, but he's
      busy watching a newborn (Congrats Dan!), so I'm watching libnvdimm
      this cycle.
    
      This adds a new feature in libnvdimm - 'Runtime Firmware Activation',
      and a few small cleanups and fixes in libnvdimm and DAX. I'd
      originally intended to make separate topic-based pull requests - one
      for libnvdimm, and one for DAX, but some of the DAX material fell out
      since it wasn't quite ready.
    
      Summary:
    
       - add 'Runtime Firmware Activation' support for NVDIMMs that
         advertise the relevant capability
    
       - misc libnvdimm and DAX cleanups"
