pmem: add copy_from_iter_pmem() and clear_pmem()
Add support for two new PMEM APIs, copy_from_iter_pmem() and
clear_pmem(). copy_from_iter_pmem() is used to copy data from an
iterator into a PMEM buffer. clear_pmem() zeros a PMEM memory range.
Both of these new APIs must be explicitly ordered using a wmb_pmem()
function call and are implemented in such a way that the wmb_pmem()
will make the stores to PMEM durable. Because both APIs are unordered
they can be called as needed without introducing any unwanted memory
barriers.
