Hyper-V Virtual NVDIMM can already work with Ubuntu 19.04 virtual machine
running on Hyper-V, i.e. I can create a raw or fsdax namesapce, and create a
xfs or ext4 file sysetm in /dev/pmem0p1, and mount the file system with and
without "-o dax". The basic functionality is good.

My recent work is mainly for ndctl support, i.e. get the health info by ndctl,
and use ndctl to monitor the error events (if applicable).
