As Dexuan reports the NVDIMM_FAMILY_HYPERV platform is incompatible with the existing Linux namespace implementation because it uses NSLABEL_FLAG_LOCAL for x1-width PMEM interleave sets. Quirk it as an platform / DIMM that does not provide BLK-aperture access. Allow the libnvdimm core to assume no potential for aliasing. In case other implementations make the same mistake, provide a "noblk" module parameter to force-enable the quirk.

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.
