Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-5.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updayes from Vishal Verma:
"You'd normally receive this pull request from Dan Williams, but he's
busy watching a newborn (Congrats Dan!), so I'm watching libnvdimm
this cycle.
This adds a new feature in libnvdimm - 'Runtime Firmware Activation',
and a few small cleanups and fixes in libnvdimm and DAX. I'd
originally intended to make separate topic-based pull requests - one
for libnvdimm, and one for DAX, but some of the DAX material fell out
since it wasn't quite ready.
Summary:
- add 'Runtime Firmware Activation' support for NVDIMMs that
advertise the relevant capability
- misc libnvdimm and DAX cleanups"

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.
