Bug Description

When running opengcs with the linux-azure kernel (4.11.0-1008.8), persistent memory doesn't seem to be working.

A known issue was introduced by 4.11.2, and that might be related to the problem:

The revert alone doesn't solve the problem. We will run new tests enabling CONFIG_ND_BLK and CONFIG_ACPI_NFIT.

The revert is not necessary anymore since the issue was fixed upstream by the commit id fd96b8da68d3 ("ext4: fix fault handling when mounted with -o dax,ro").
