It is not safe to pretend that emulated NVDIMM supports persistence while backend actually failed to enable it and used non-persistent mapping as fall back. Instead of falling-back, QEMU should be more strict and error out with clear message that it's not supported. So if user asks for persistence (pmem=on), they should store backing file on NVDIMM.
