If this is going to go through nvdimm.git I will need it against a
mainline tag baseline. Linus will want to see the merge conflicts.

Otherwise if that merge commit is too messy, or you would rather not
rebase, then it either needs to go one of two options:

- Andrew's tree which is the only tree I know of that can carry
  patches relative to linux-next.

- Wait for v6.14-rc1 and get this into nvdimm.git early in the cycle
  when the conflict storm will be low.

Last I attempted the merge conflict resolution with v4, they were not
*that* bad. However, that rebase may need to keep some definitions
around to avoid compile breakage and the need to expand the merge commit
to carrying things like the Loongarch PTE_DEVMAP removal. I.e. move some
of the after-the-fact cleanups to a post merge branch.
