This patch series enables the usage os new pmem flush and sync instructions on POWER
architecture. POWER10 introduces two new variants of dcbf instructions (dcbstps and dcbfps)
that can be used to write modified locations back to persistent storage. Additionally,
POWER10 also introduce phwsync and plwsync which can be used to establish order of these
writes to persistent storage.
    
This series exposes these instructions to the rest of the kernel. The existing
dcbf and hwsync instructions in P8 and P9 are adequate to enable appropriate
synchronization with OpenCAPI-hosted persistent storage. Hence the new instructions
are added as a variant of the old ones that old hardware won't differentiate.

On POWER10, pmem devices will be represented by a different device tree compat
strings. This ensures that older kernels won't initialize pmem devices on POWER10.

With this:
1) vPMEM continues to work since it is a volatile region. That 
doesn't need any flush instructions.

2) pmdk and other user applications get updated to use new instructions
and updated packages are made available to all distributions

3) On newer hardware, the device will appear with a new compat string. 
Hence older distributions won't initialize pmem on newer hardware.

Changes from v6:
* rename flush barrier to pmem_wmb(). Update documentation. 
* Drop the WARN_ON in flush routines.
* Drop pap_scm ndr_region flush callback.

Changes from v5:
* Drop CONFIG_ARCH_MAP_SYNC_DISABLE and related changes

Changes from V4:
* Add namespace specific sychronous fault control.

Changes from V3:
* Add new compat string to be used for the device.
* Use arch_pmem_flush_barrier() in dm-writecache.

The PAPR based virtualized persistent memory devices are only supported on
POWER9 and above. In the followup patch, the kernel will switch the persistent
memory cache flush functions to use a new `dcbf` variant instruction. The new
instructions even though added in ISA 3.1 works even on P8 and P9 because these
are implemented as a variant of existing `dcbf` and `hwsync` and on P8 and
P9 behaves as such.

Considering these devices are only supported on P8 and above,  update the driver
to prevent a P7-compat guest from using persistent memory devices.

We don't update of_pmem driver with the same condition, because, on bare-metal,
the firmware enables pmem support only on P9 and above. There the kernel depends
on OPAL firmware to restrict exposing persistent memory related device tree
entries on older hardware. of_pmem.ko is written without any arch dependency and
we don't want to add ppc64 specific cpu feature check in of_pmem driver.

Start using dcbstps; phwsync; sequence for flushing persistent memory range.
The new instructions are implemented as a variant of dcbf and hwsync and on
P8 and P9 they will be executed as those instructions. We avoid using them on
older hardware. This helps to avoid difficult to debug bugs.

Architectures like ppc64 provide persistent memory specific barriers
that will ensure that all stores for which the modifications are
written to persistent storage by preceding dcbfps and dcbstps
instructions have updated persistent storage before any data
access or data transfer caused by subsequent instructions is initiated.
This is in addition to the ordering done by wmb()

Update nvdimm core such that architecture can use barriers other than
wmb to ensure all previous writes are architecturally visible for
the platform buffer flush.

nvdimm expect the flush routines to just mark the cache clean. The barrier
that mark the store globally visible is done in nvdimm_flush().

With kernel now supporting new pmem flush/sync instructions, we can now
enable the kernel to initialize the device. On P10 these devices would
appear with a new compatible string. For PAPR device we have

compatible       "ibm,pmemory-v2"

and for OF pmem device we have

compatible       "pmem-region-v2"
