commit adf6895754e2503d994a765535fd1813f8834674 upstream.
Integration testing with a BIOS that generates injected health event
notifications fails to communicate those events to userspace. The nfit
driver neglects to link the ACPI DIMM device with the necessary driver
data so acpi_nvdimm_notify() fails this lookup:
nfit_mem = dev_get_drvdata(dev);
if (nfit_mem && nfit_mem->flags_attr)
sysfs_notify_dirent(nfit_mem->flags_attr);
Add the necessary linkage when installing the notification handler and
clean it up when the nfit driver instance is torn down.

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.
