So this triggers:
In file included from drivers/nvdimm/e820.c:7:
./include/linux/libnvdimm.h:140:51: warning: ‘struct bio’ declared
inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition
or declaration
int (*flush)(struct nd_region *nd_region, struct bio *bio);
^~~
I was already feeling uneasy about trying to squeeze this into v5.2,
but this warning and the continued drip of comments leads me to
conclude that this driver would do well to wait one more development
cycle. Lets close out the final fixups and let this driver soak in
-next. Then for the v5.3 cycle I'll redouble my efforts towards the
goal of closing patch acceptance at the -rc6 / -rc7 development
milestone.
