Thanks Toshi, I did not know that NFIT would not work. (As I already ranted NFIT
is hard to find)

Would it be hard to fix? I mean the way it is today NvDIMM is always put at the
*end* of the NUMA address range, so all the NUMA boundaries (start) are there, all
we need is to make sure max_pfn is advanced behind the last NvDIMM range.

(Ok and we might have a slight problem with an NFIT only Node, where there
 is no volatile memory at all)

I think it is worth fixing there are surprising places this might be used.
I know that it works with type-12 and emulated pmem.

(Once I set up my NFIT QEMU I'll see what I can find)
