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.

[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"
