I haven't got a filesystem mounted using DAX yet, but I thought I might
as well send out the current patch against ktest for enabling persistent
memory. It's clearly *wrong*, but I do get a /dev/pmem0 device under
Linux once I add all the right config options. So it's a start, and
people who are deeper into this than I am can suggest things to do to
make it better.
