The pmem driver on PowerPC crashes with the following signature when
instantiating misaligned namespaces that map their capacity via
memremap_pages().
BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access at 0xc001000406000000
Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000090790
NIP [c000000000090790] arch_add_memory+0xc0/0x130

With the assumption that only memremap_pages() has alignment
constraints, enforce memremap_compat_align() for
pmem_should_map_pages(), nd_pfn, and nd_dax cases. This includes
preventing the creation of namespaces where the base address is
misaligned and cases there infoblock padding parameters are invalid.

This is needed so that pmem probe don't wrongly initialize a namespace
which doesn't have enough space reserved for holding struct pages
with the current kernel.

Now that the mm core supports section-unaligned hotplug of ZONE_DEVICE
memory, we no longer need to add padding at pfn/dax device creation
time. The kernel will still honor padding established by older kernels.

At namespace creation time there is the potential for the "expected to
be zero" fields of a 'pfn' info-block to be filled with indeterminate
data. While the kernel buffer is zeroed on allocation it is immediately
overwritten by nd_pfn_validate() filling it with the current contents of
the on-media info-block location. For fields like, 'flags' and the
'padding' it potentially means that future implementations can not rely on
those fields being zero.
In preparation to stop using the 'start_pad' and 'end_trunc' fields for
section alignment, arrange for fields that are not explicitly
initialized to be guaranteed zero. Bump the minor version to indicate
it is safe to assume the 'padding' and 'flags' are zero. Otherwise,
this corruption is expected to benign since all other critical fields
are explicitly initialized.
Note The cc: stable is about spreading this new policy to as many
kernels as possible not fixing an issue in those kernels. It is not
until the change titled "libnvdimm/pfn: Stop padding pmem namespaces to
section alignment" where this improper initialization becomes a problem.
So if someone decides to backport "libnvdimm/pfn: Stop padding pmem
namespaces to section alignment" (which is not tagged for stable), make
sure this pre-requisite is flagged.

For autodetecting a previously established dax configuration we need the
info block to indicate block-device vs device-dax mode, and we need to
have the default namespace probe hand-off the configuration to the
dax_pmem driver.

We want to use the alignment as the allocation and mapping unit.
Previously this information was only useful for establishing the data

The altmap for a section-misaligned namespace needs to arrange for the
base_pfn to be section-aligned. As a result the 'reserve' region (pfns
from base that do not have a struct page) must be increased. Otherwise
we trip the altmap validation check in __add_pages:
if (altmap->base_pfn != phys_start_pfn
|| vmem_altmap_offset(altmap) > nr_pages) {
pr_warn_once("memory add fail, invalid altmap\n");
return -EINVAL;
}

Implement the base infrastructure for libnvdimm PFN devices. Similar to
BTT devices they take a namespace as a backing device and layer
functionality on top. In this case the functionality is reserving space
for an array of 'struct page' entries to be handed out through
pfn_to_page(). For now this is just the basic libnvdimm-device-model for
configuring the base PFN device.
As the namespace claiming mechanism for PFN devices is mostly identical
to BTT devices drivers/nvdimm/claim.c is created to house the common
bits.
