libnvdimm, nfit: initial libnvdimm infrastructure and NFIT support

A struct nvdimm_bus is the anchor device for registering nvdimm
resources and interfaces, for example, a character control device,
nvdimm devices, and I/O region devices.  The ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware
Interface Table) is one possible platform description for such
non-volatile memory resources in a system.  The nfit.ko driver attaches
to the "ACPI0012" device that indicates the presence of the NFIT and
parses the table to register a struct nvdimm_bus instance.

+	  Generic support for non-volatile memory devices including
+	  ACPI-6-NFIT defined resources.  On platforms that define an
+	  NFIT, or otherwise can discover NVDIMM resources, a libnvdimm
+	  bus is registered to advertise PMEM (persistent memory)
+	  namespaces (/dev/pmemX) and BLK (sliding mmio window(s))
+	  namespaces (/dev/ndX). A PMEM namespace refers to a memory
+	  resource that may span multiple DIMMs and support DAX (see
+	  CONFIG_DAX).  A BLK namespace refers to an NVDIMM control
+	  region which exposes an mmio register set for windowed
+	  access mode to non-volatile memory.
