- Address Range Scrub overflow continuation handling has been broken
since it was initially merged. It was only recently that error injection
and platform-BIOS support enabled this corner case to be exercised.
- The recent attempt to provide more isolation for the kernel Address
Range Scrub state machine from userapace initiated sessions triggers a
lockdep report. Revert and try again at the next merge window.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"A small batch of fixes for v4.20-rc3.
The overflow continuation fix addresses something that has been broken
for several releases. Arguably it could wait even longer, but it's a
one line fix and this finishes the last of the known address range
scrub bug reports. The revert addresses a lockdep regression. The unit
tests are not critical to fix, but no reason to hold this fix back.
Summary:
- Address Range Scrub overflow continuation handling has been broken
since it was initially merged. It was only recently that error
injection and platform-BIOS support enabled this corner case to be
exercised.
- The recent attempt to provide more isolation for the kernel Address
Range Scrub state machine from userapace initiated sessions
triggers a lockdep report. Revert and try again at the next merge
window.
- Fix a kasan reported buffer overflow in libnvdimm unit test
infrastrucutre (nfit_test)"

README
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.
