Hi, Julien,

Thank you for your review and help. I did notice that a new v84 version was
also released. However, I will wait for the next version (which should be
v85) to be released before updating. I have already fixed the upstream bug
in ndctl that you found during my code review, and it has been merged. See:
https://github.com/pmem/ndctl/tree/pending

Thanks,
Pei
