Subject: [RFC][PATCH v2 01/21] e820: cheat PMEM as DRAM

Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org

From: Fan Du <fan.du@intel.com>

This is a hack to enumerate PMEM as NUMA nodes.
It's necessary for current BIOS that don't yet fill ACPI HMAT table.

WARNING: take care to backup. It is mutual exclusive with libnvdimm
subsystem and can destroy ndctl managed namespaces.
