[RFC 2/4] libnvdimm: Add a device-tree interface

A fairly bare-bones set of device-tree bindings so libnvdimm can be used
on powerpc and other, less cool, device-tree based platforms.

The current bindings are essentially this:

nonvolatile-memory {
	compatible = "nonvolatile-memory", "special-memory";
	ranges;

	region at 0 {
		compatible = "nvdimm,byte-addressable";
		reg = <0x0 0x1000>;
	};

	region at 1000 {
		compatible = "nvdimm,byte-addressable";
		reg = <0x1000 0x1000>;
	};
};

To handle interleave sets, etc the plan was the add an extra property with the
interleave stride and a "mapping" property with <&DIMM, dimm-start-offset>
tuples for each dimm in the interleave set. Block MMIO regions can be added
with a different compatible type, but I'm not too concerned with them for
now.

Does this sound reasonable? Is there anything this scheme would make difficult?
