+Description:
+ (RO) Report flags indicating various states of a
+ papr-pmem NVDIMM device. Each flag maps to a one or
+ more bits set in the dimm-health-bitmap retrieved in
+ response to H_SCM_HEALTH hcall. The details of the bit
+ flags returned in response to this hcall is available
+ at 'Documentation/powerpc/papr_hcalls.rst' . Below are
+ the flags reported in this sysfs file:
+
+ * "not_armed" : Indicates that NVDIMM contents will not
+ survive a power cycle.
+ * "flush_fail" : Indicates that NVDIMM contents
+ couldn't be flushed during last
+ shut-down event.
+ * "restore_fail": Indicates that NVDIMM contents
+ couldn't be restored during NVDIMM
+ initialization.
+ * "encrypted" : NVDIMM contents are encrypted.
+ * "smart_notify": There is health event for the NVDIMM.
+ * "scrubbed" : Indicating that contents of the
+ NVDIMM have been scrubbed.
+ * "locked" : Indicating that NVDIMM contents cant
+ be modified until next power cycle.
