Well, for devices freezing is handled directly in the block layer code (blk_stop_queue()) since there's no need to put some metadata structures into a consistent state. So the comment about bdev_sops is somewhat strange. Otherwise the patch looks good to me.

If an application wants exclusive access to all of the persistent memory provided by an NVDIMM namespace it can use this raw-block-dax facility to forgo establishing a filesystem. This capability is targeted primarily to hypervisors wanting to provision persistent memory for guests.
