Please also include your nvdimm driver in your next
submission (even if that is not part of the submission
yet), so that we can see how the driver makes use of the
new facility.

There's quite a bit of confusion about what means what,
people are not of one opinion, and it's easier to see and
check the fine code instead of making assumptions.

Thanks,
