Thanks, looks ok to me.

It was commit aa9ad44a42b4 ("libnvdimm: move poison list functions to
a new 'badrange' file") that left the straggling include in core.c.

[PATCH] drivers: nvdimm: cleanup include of badblocks.h

[Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult]

* drivers/nvdimm/core.c doesn't use anything from badblocks.h on its own,
  thus including it isn't needed. There's indeed indirect use, via funcs
  in nd.h, but this one already includes badblocks.h.

* drivers/nvdimm/claim.c calls stuff from badblocks.h and therefore should
  include it on its own (instead of relying any other header doing that)

* drivers/nvdimm/btt.h doesn't really need anything from badblocks.h and
  can easily live with a forward declaration of struct badblocks (just having
  pointers to it, but not dereferencing it anywhere)
