[PATCH v4 6/6] mm/nvdimm: Fix endian conversion issues

Thu Jun 20 19:16:26 AEST 2019


nd_label->dpa issue was observed when trying to enable the namespace created
with little-endian kernel on a big-endian kernel. That made me run
`sparse` on the rest of the code and other changes are the result of that.

Fixes: d9b83c756953 ("libnvdimm, btt: rework error clearing")
Fixes: 9dedc73a4658 ("libnvdimm/btt: Fix LBA masking during 'free list' population")
