It isn't about booting but rather the NVDIMM specification describes a special partition table used to break the ram up into different devices with different properties for interleave and sector atomicity or not. Use of this partition table is not optional. I'm not sure it makes any sense to then take one of those partitions, and try to sub-partition it with another disk label, or whether parted could be extended to manipulate the NVDIMM partition table.
