      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.

      Second set of IIO fixes for the 4.8 cycle.
      
      We have a big rework of the kxsd9 driver queued up behind the fix below and
      a fix for a recent fix that was marked for stable.
      Hence this fix series is perhaps a little more urgent than average for IIO.
      * core
        - a fix for a fix in the last set.  The recent fix for blocking ops when
         ! task running left a path (unlikely one) in which the function return
         value was not set - so initialise it to 0.
        - The IIO_TYPE_FRACTIONAL code previously didn't cope with negative
        fractions.  Turned out a fix for this was in Analog's tree but hadn't made
        it upstream.
      * bmc150
        - reset chip at init time. At least one board out there ends up coming up
        in an unstable state due to noise during power up.  The reset does no
        harm on other boards.
      * kxsd9
        - Fix a bug in the reported scaling due to failing to set the integer
        part to 0.
      * hid-sensors-pressure
        - Output was in the wrong units to comply with the IIO ABI.
      * tools
        - iio_generic_buffer: Fix the trigger-less mode by ensuring we don't fault
          out for having no trigger when we explicitly said we didn't want to have
          one.
