[Feature]Crystal Ridge:add support for the platform capabilities NFIT sub-table in ACPI 6.2A

Commits merged 4.16 rc1:

5ed4e5ca51c ACPICA: ACPI 6.0A: Changes to the NFIT ACPI table
06e8ccdab15 acpi: nfit: Add support for detect platform CPU cache flush on power loss
30e6d7bf29d acpi: nfit: add persistent memory control flag for nd_region
96c3a239054 libnvdimm: expose platform persistence attribute for nd_region
and one more that's pending to revert the change to support deep flush

All four apply cleanly and build fine for amd64 generic.

Cascardo.

5fdf8e5ba56 libnvdimm: re-enable deep flush for pmem devices via fsync()
