Persistent memory devices like NVDIMMs can loose cached writes in case something prevents flush on power-fail. Such situations are termed as dirty shutdown and are exposed to applications as last-shutdown-state (LSS) flag and a dirty-shutdown-counter(DSC) as described at [1]. The latter being useful in conditions where multiple applications want to detect a dirty shutdown event without racing with one another. PAPR-NVDIMMs have so far only exposed LSS style flags to indicate a dirty-shutdown-state. This patch further adds support for DSC via the "ibm,persistence-failed-count" device tree property of an NVDIMM. This property is a monotonic increasing 64-bit counter thats an indication of number of times an NVDIMM has encountered a dirty-shutdown event causing persistence loss. Since this value is not expected to change after system-boot hence papr_scm reads & caches its value during NVDIMM probe and exposes it as a PAPR sysfs attributed named 'dirty_shutdown' to match the name of similarly named NFIT sysfs attribute. Also this value is available to libnvdimm via PAPR_PDSM_HEALTH payload. 'struct nd_papr_pdsm_health' has been extended to add a new member called 'dimm_dsc' presence of which is indicated by the newly introduced PDSM_DIMM_DSC_VALID flag.
