[ndctl PATCH 0/3] daxctl-device fixes

This series contains a couple of fixes:

1/ Check the kernel policy for onlining blocks. If that is set to
'online', and if daxctl is passed --no-online or is onlining to
ZONE_MOVABLE (default), then fail the reconfigure command as we know
we can't satisfy that ask. (Prior to these patches, the reconfigure
would succeed, and we'd print a warning after the fact, which may
result in a surprising experience).

2/ For ndctl disable-namespace (and destroy-namespace), fail the
operation if the dax device is active as system-ram.

Additionally, augment the daxctl-devices.sh unit test to test for both
of these conditions and the expected (fixed) behavior in both cases.

Vishal Verma (3):
  daxctl: fail reconfigure-device based on kernel onlining policy
  libdaxctl: add an API to check if a device is active
  libndctl: check for active system-ram before disabling daxctl devices
