Dan Williams a3e9af95f7 libnvdimm: restore "libnvdimm: band aid btt vs clear poison locking"
This continues the 4.11 status quo of disabling of error clearing from
the BTT I/O path. Toshi found that even though we have eliminated all
the libnvdimm sources of sleeping-while-atomic triggers, we still have
sleeping operations that will occur in the path to send the ACPI DSM to
the DIMM to clear the error:

 BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.h:432
 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 13353, name: dd
 Call Trace:

  btt_write_pg+0x1d4/0x3d0 [nd_btt]
  btt_make_request+0x119/0x2d0 [nd_btt]

A solution for tracking and handling media errors natively in the BTT is
needed.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
