I think we need to split this driver into 2 files,
drivers/virtio/pmem.c would discover and register the virtual pmem
device with the libnvdimm core, and drivers/nvdimm/virtio.c would
house virtio_pmem_flush().

Why does this need wait_queue's per request? shouldn't this be per-device?

That's a long de-ref chain I would just stash the vdev in
nd_region->provider_data.

Hmm, this seems awkward if this is called from pmem_make_request. If
we need to wait for completion that should be managed by the guest
block layer. I.e. make_request should just queue request and then
trigger bio_endio() when the response comes back.

However this does mean that nvdimm_flush() becomes asynchronous. So
maybe we need to pass in a 'sync' flag or the bio directly to indicate
this is an asynchronous flush request from pmem_make_request() vs a
synchronous one from nsio_rw_bytes().

As far as I can see there's nothing to do on a power transition, I
would just omit this completely.

Why does this need to be in the uapi?
