      Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
       "nvdimm fixes for v4.8, two of them are tagged for -stable:
      
         - Fix devm_memremap_pages() to use track_pfn_insert().  Otherwise,
           DAX pmd mappings end up with an uncached pgprot, and unusable
           performance for the device-dax interface.  The device-dax interface
           appeared in 4.7 so this is tagged for -stable.
      
         - Fix a couple VM_BUG_ON() checks in the show_smaps() path to
           understand DAX pmd entries.  This fix is tagged for -stable.
      
         - Fix a mis-merge of the nfit machine-check handler to flip the
           polarity of an if() to match the final version of the patch that
           Vishal sent for 4.8-rc1.  Without this the nfit machine check
           handler never detects / inserts new 'badblocks' entries which
           applications use to identify lost portions of files.
      
         - For test purposes, fix the nvdimm_clear_poison() path to operate on
           legacy / simulated nvdimm memory ranges.  Without this fix a test
           can set badblocks, but never clear them on these ranges.
      
         - Fix the range checking done by dax_dev_pmd_fault().  This is not
           tagged for -stable since this problem is mitigated by specifying
           aligned resources at device-dax setup time.
      
        These patches have appeared in a next release over the past week.  The
        recent rebase you can see in the timestamps was to drop an invalid fix
        as identified by the updated device-dax unit tests [1].  The -mm
        touches have an ack from Andrew"

      usb: fixes for v4.8-rc6
      
      Unfortunately we have a bogus dwc3 patch leaked through the cracks and
      got merged into Linus' HEAD. That patch ended up causing off-by-1 error
      in our TRB accounting logic. Thankfully John Youn found out the problem
      and we provided a revert to the bogus dwc3 patch in no time.
      
      Apart from this off-by-1 error, we have two fixes to the Renesas drivers,
      a small fix to our generic phy driver, a NULL pointer dereference fix for
      f_eem and a build warning fix in dwc3.
