Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"A fix for a crash scenario that has been present since the initial
merge, a minor regression in sysfs attribute visibility, and a fix for
some flexible array warnings.
The bulk of this pull is an update to the libnvdimm unit test
infrastructure to test non-ACPI platforms. Given there is zero
regression risk for test updates, and the tests enable validation of
bits headed towards the next merge window, I saw no reason to hold the
new tests back. Santosh originally submitted this before the v5.11
window opened.
Summary:
- Fix a crash when sysfs accesses race 'dimm' driver probe/remove.
- Fix a regression in 'resource' attribute visibility necessary for
mapping badblocks and other physical address interrogations.
- Fix some flexible array warnings
- Expand the unit test infrastructure for non-ACPI platforms"

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.
