How do you run that test?

This is the unit test suite that gets kicked off by running "make
check" from the ndctl source repository. In this case it requires the
nfit_test set of modules to create a fake nvdimm environment.

The setup instructions are in the README, but feel free to send me
branches and I can kick off a test. One of these we'll get around to
making it automated for patch submissions to the linux-nvdimm mailing
list.

Oh, now I remember, and that was the bummer as anything requiring modules
just does not fit at all into my normal test flows that just inject
kernel images and use otherwise static images.
