Dan Williams 21083f5152 cxl/pmem: Register 'pmem' / cxl_nvdimm devices
While a memX device on /sys/bus/cxl represents a CXL memory expander
control interface, a pmemX device represents the persistent memory
sub-functionality. It bridges the CXL subystem to the libnvdimm nmemX
control interface.

With this skeleton ndctl can now see persistent memory devices on a
"CXL" bus. Later patches add support for translating libnvdimm native
commands to CXL commands.

# ndctl list -BDiu -b CXL
{
  "provider":"CXL",
  "dev":"ndbus1",
  "dimms":[
    {
      "dev":"nmem1",
      "state":"disabled"
    },
    {
      "dev":"nmem0",
      "state":"disabled"
    }
  ]
}

Given nvdimm_bus_unregister() removes all devices on an ndbus0 the
cxl_pmem infrastructure needs to arrange ->remove() to be triggered on
cxl_nvdimm devices to keep their enabled state synchronized with the
registration state of their corresponding device on the nvdimm_bus. In
other words, always arrange for cxl_nvdimm_driver.remove() to unregister
nvdimms from an nvdimm_bus ahead of the bus being unregistered.

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.
