Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm fix from Dan Williams: "This contains a regression fix for a problem that was introduced in v4.7-rc6. In 4.7-rc1 we introduced auto-probing for the ACPI DSM (device- specific-method) format that the platform firmware implements for nvdimm devices. We initially fixed a regression in probing the QEMU DSM implementation by making acpi_check_dsm() tolerant of the way QEMU reports the "0 DSMs supported" condition. However, that broke HPE platforms since that tolerance caused the driver to mistakenly match the 1-zero-byte response those platforms give to "unknown" commands. Instead, we simply make the driver tolerant of not finding any supported DSMs. This has been tested to work with both QEMU and HPE platforms. This commit has appeared in a -next release with no reported issues" * 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: nfit: make DIMM DSMs optional
