A libnvdimm bus is the anchor device for registering nvdimm resources and
interfaces, for example, a character control device, nvdimm devices,
and I/O region devices.  The ACPI NFIT (NVDIMM Firmware Interface Table)
is one possible platform description for such non-volatile memory
resources in a system.  The nfit.ko driver attaches to the "ACPI0012"
device that indicates the presence of the NFIT and parses the table to
register a libnvdimm bus instance.

Havin lib in a name of a bus seems odd.  Why not simply the nvdimm bus?

Also this seems to both have the generic nvdimm infrastructure as well
as the acpi wiring.  Might make sense to split this into two patches?

Is this the right way for the user to chose it?  It seems like enabling
the NVMDIMM subsystem would be the obvious choice, and ACPI would
simply enable the table parsing in that case.

Should this use the uuid_le type?

Please never put code on the same line as a switch (or goto) label.

No need to case from void * to another pointer type.

If you need local variables inside a switch statement you probably
want to split each case into a separate helper function.

This line is over 80 characters.

Also why the odd __-prefix?

What different meanings will CONFIG_NVDIMM_DEVICES and CONFIG_LIBNVDIMM
have?

No need for -private if you're already under drivers/nvdimm..

At least so far this header doesn't need libnvdimm.h

Please provide proper methods that do one thing properly instead of
ioctl-like multiplexers.

+	  NFIT, or otherwise can discover NVDIMM resources, a libnvdimm
+	  bus is registered to advertise PMEM (persistent memory)
+	  namespaces (/dev/pmemX) and BLK (sliding mmio window(s))
+	  namespaces (/dev/ndX). A PMEM namespace refers to a memory
+	  resource that may span multiple DIMMs and support DAX (see
+	  CONFIG_DAX).  A BLK namespace refers to an NVDIMM control
+	  region which exposes an mmio register set for windowed
+	  access mode to non-volatile memory.
