Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm and DAX updates from Dan Williams:
"New support for clearing memory errors when a file is in DAX mode,
alongside with some other fixes and cleanups.
Previously it was only possible to clear these errors using a truncate
or hole-punch operation to trigger the filesystem to reallocate the
block, now, any page aligned write can opportunistically clear errors
as well.
This change spans x86/mm, nvdimm, and fs/dax, and has received the
appropriate sign-offs. Thanks to Jane for her work on this.
Summary:
- Add support for clearing memory error via pwrite(2) on DAX
- Fix 'security overwrite' support in the presence of media errors
- Miscellaneous cleanups and fixes for nfit_test (nvdimm unit tests)"
* tag 'libnvdimm-for-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm:

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.
