It's unfortunate that we already have 2 ways to describe persistent memory devices, let's not perpetuate a third so that "grep" has a chance to find interrelated code across architectures.

Other than that this looks > good to me. Sure, will use PAPR_NVDIMM instead of PAPR_SCM for new code being introduced. However certain identifiers like H_SCM_HEALTH are taken from the papr specificiation hence need to use the same name. > >> Cc: "Aneesh Kumar K .
