Dan Williams 75c7ba4853 libnvdimm, region: Fail badblocks listing for inactive regions
commit 5d394eee2c102453278d81d9a7cf94c80253486a upstream.

While experimenting with region driver loading the following backtrace
was triggered:

 INFO: trying to register non-static key.
 the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
 turning off the locking correctness validator.
 [..]
 Call Trace:
  dump_stack+0x85/0xcb
  register_lock_class+0x571/0x580
  ? __lock_acquire+0x2ba/0x1310
  ? kernfs_seq_start+0x2a/0x80

  badblocks_show+0x70/0x190
  ? dev_attr_show+0x1c/0x50
  dev_attr_show+0x1c/0x50

This results from a missing successful call to devm_init_badblocks()
from nd_region_probe(). Block attempts to show badblocks while the
region is not enabled.

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.
