You resending your v5 series ? Is there any news since your submittion 
last month that's awaiting in patchwork here at 
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linuxppc-dev/list/?series=264422 ?

> Patch3:
>          Add code in arch/powerpc/platform/pseries/papr_scm.c to expose

> v4 -> v5:
> - Remove multiple variables defined in nvdimm_pmu structure include

>    used to copy them again in pmu variable. Now we are directly doing
>    this step in arch specific code as suggested by Dan Williams.
> 
> - Remove attribute group field from nvdimm pmu structure and
>    defined these attribute groups in common interface which
>    includes format, event list along with cpumask as suggested by
>    Dan Williams.
>    Since we added static defination for attrbute groups needed in
>    common interface, removes corresponding code from papr.
> 
> - Add nvdimm pmu event list with event codes in the common interface.
> 
> - Remove Acked-by/Reviewed-by/Tested-by tags as code is refactored
>    to handle review comments from Dan.
> 
> - Make nvdimm_pmu_free_hotplug_memory function static as reported
>    by kernel test robot, also add corresponding Reported-by tag.
> 
> - Link to the patchset v4: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/9/3/45
> 
> v3 -> v4
> - Rebase code on top of current papr_scm code without any logical
>    changes.
> 
> - Added Acked-by tag from Peter Zijlstra and Reviewed by tag

> - Link to the patchset v3: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/6/17/605

> v2 -> v3
> - Added Tested-by tag.
