Without the fix in [PATCH 1/3] Linux will miscount the number of DIMMs and fail to load the driver. The fix is tagged for -stable on the expectation that ACPI 6.1 compatible systems will overlap current -stable development branches. The latter two patches in the series are verification tests that can be integrated for 4.6. --- Dan Williams (3): nfit: fix multi-interface dimm handling, acpi6.1 compatibility nfit, tools/testing/nvdimm: add format interface code definitions nfit, tools/testing/nvdimm: test multiple control regions per-dimm drivers/acpi/nfit.c | 71 +++++++++++----------- drivers/acpi/nfit.h | 6 ++ tools/testing/nvdimm/test/nfit.c | 125 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 3 files changed, 141 insertions(+), 61 deletions(-)
