Vishal Verma b177fe85dd libnvdimm, btt: ensure that initializing metadata clears poison
If we had badblocks/poison in the metadata area of a BTT, recreating the
BTT would not clear the poison in all cases, notably the flog area. This
is because rw_bytes will only clear errors if the request being sent
down is 512B aligned and sized.

Make sure that when writing the map and info blocks, the rw_bytes being
sent are of the correct size/alignment. For the flog, instead of doing
the smaller log_entry writes only, first do a 'wipe' of the entire area
by writing zeroes in large enough chunks so that errors get cleared.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
