Jason Wang 020e1aede7 virtio_pmem: initialize provider_data through nd_region_desc
We used to initialize the provider_data manually after
nvdimm_pemm_region_create(). This seems to be racy if the flush is
issued before the initialization of provider_data[1]. Fixing this by
initializing the provider_data through nd_region_desc to make sure the
provider_data is ready after the pmem is created.

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.
