Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"Twas the day before Christmas and the only thing stirring in libnvdimm
/ device-dax land is a pile of miscellaneous fixups and cleanups.
The bulk of it has appeared in -next save the last two patches to
device-dax that have passed my build and unit tests.
- Fix a long standing block-window-namespace issue surfaced by the
ndctl change to attempt to preserve the kernel device name over
a 'reconfigure'
- Fix a few error path memory leaks in nfit and device-dax
- Silence a smatch warning in the ioctl path
- Miscellaneous cleanups"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
