Yasunori Goto a117699c6c tools/testing/nvdimm: fix nfit_test buffer overflow
The root cause of panic is the num_pm of nfit_test1 is wrong.
Though 1 is specified for num_pm at nfit_test_init(), it must be 2,
because nfit_test1->spa_set[] array has 2 elements.

Since the array is smaller than expected, the driver breaks other area.
(it is often the link list of devres).

As a result, panic occurs like the following example.

    CPU: 4 PID: 2233 Comm: lt-libndctl Tainted: G           O    4.12.0-rc1+ #12

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
