Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
 "A fix for namespace label support for non-Intel NVDIMMs that implement
  the ACPI standard label method.

  This has apparently never worked and could wait for v5.1. However it
  has enough visibility with hardware vendors [1] and distro bug
  trackers [2], and low enough risk that I decided it should go in for
  -rc4. The other fixups target the new, for v5.0, nvdimm security
  functionality. The larger init path fixup closes a memory leak and a
  potential userspace lockup due to missed notifications.

    [1] https://github.com/pmem/ndctl/issues/78
    [2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1811785

  These have all soaked in -next for a week with no reported issues.

  Summary:

   - Fix support for NVDIMMs that implement the ACPI standard label
     methods.

   - Fix error handling for security overwrite (memory leak / userspace
     hang condition), and another one-line security cleanup"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
