Add support for ND_REGION_ASYNC capability if the device tree indicates 'ibm,hcall-flush-required' property in the NVDIMM node. Flush is done by issuing H_SCM_FLUSH hcall to the hypervisor. If the flush request failed, the hypervisor is expected to to reflect the problem in the subsequent nvdimm H_SCM_HEALTH call. This patch prevents mmap of namespaces with MAP_SYNC flag if the nvdimm requires an explicit flush[1].

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.
