OK, with the final ack from Johannes and since this is mostly DAX stuff,
can we take this through NVDIMM tree and push to Linus either late in the
merge window or for -rc2? These patches require my DAX patches sitting in mm
tree so they can be included in any git tree only once those patches land
in Linus' tree (which may happen only once Dave and Ted push out their
stuff - this is the most convoluted merge window I'd ever to deal with ;-)...
Dan?
