The current test module cannot be used for testing platforms (make check)
that do not have support for NFIT. In order to get the ndctl tests working,
we need a module which can emulate NVDIMM devices without relying on
ACPI/NFIT.

The aim of this proposed module is to implement a similar functionality to
the existing module but without the ACPI dependencies.

This RFC series is split into reviewable and compilable chunks.

This patch adds a new driver and registers two nvdimm bus needed for ndctl
make check.
