[PATCH v4 0/6] Fixes related namespace alignment/page size/big endian

This series handle configs where hugepage support is not enabled by default.
Also, we update some of the information messages to make sure we use PAGE_SIZE instead
of SZ_4K. We now store page size and struct page size in pfn_sb and do extra check
before enabling namespace. There also an endianness fix.

The patch series is on top of subsection v10 patchset

Changes from V3:
* Dropped the change related PFN_MIN_VERSION
* for pfn_sb minor version < 4, we default page_size to PAGE_SIZE instead of SZ_4k.

Aneesh Kumar K.V (6):
  nvdimm: Consider probe return -EOPNOTSUPP as success
  mm/nvdimm: Add page size and struct page size to pfn superblock
  mm/nvdimm: Use correct #defines instead of open coding
  mm/nvdimm: Pick the right alignment default when creating dax devices
  mm/nvdimm: Use correct alignment when looking at first pfn from a
    region
  mm/nvdimm: Fix endian conversion issues
