This patch adds virtio-pmem driver for KVM guest. Guest reads the persistent memory range information from Qemu over VIRTIO and registers it on 'nvdimm_bus'. It also creates a 'nd_region' object with the persistent memory range information so that existing 'nvdimm/pmem' driver can allocate this memeory into system memory map. This way 'virtio-pmem' driver uses existing functionality of pmem driver to register persistent memory compatible for DAX capable filesystems. It also provides function to perform guest flush over VIRTIO from 'pmem' driver when userspace performs flush on DAX memory range. There is work to do including flush at host side and other features of pmem driver.
