In preparation for LIBNVDIMM to manage labels on CXL devices deploy
helpers that abstract the label type from the implementation. The CXL
label format is mostly similar to the EFI label format with concepts /
fields added, like dynamic region creation and label type guids, and
other concepts removed like BLK-mode and interleave-set-cookie ids.
CXL labels do have the concept of a claim class represented by an
"abstraction" identifier. It turns out both label implementations use
the same ids, but EFI encodes them as GUIDs and CXL labels encode them
as UUIDs. For now abstract out the claim class such that the UUID vs
GUID distinction can later be hidden in the helper.

A recent change to ndctl to attempt to reconfigure namespaces in place
uncovered a label accounting problem in block-window-type namespaces.
The ndctl "create.sh" test is able to trigger this signature:

When allocated capacity for a namespace is renamed (new UUID) the labels
with the old UUID need to be deleted. The ndctl behavior to always
destroy namespaces on reconfiguration hid this problem.
The immediate impact of this bug is limited since block-window-type
namespaces only seem to exist in the specification and not in any
shipping products. However, the label handling code is being reused for
other technologies like CXL region labels, so there is a benefit to
making sure both vertical labels sets (block-window) and horizontal
label sets (pmem) have a functional reference implementation in
libnvdimm.

Unfortunately those reports were typically with a busy parallel
namespace creation / destruction loop making it difficult to see the
components of the bug. However, Jane provided a simple reproducer using
the work-in-progress sub-section implementation.
When ndctl is reconfiguring a namespace it may take an existing defunct
/ disabled namespace and reconfigure it with a new uuid and other
parameters. Critically namespace_update_uuid() takes existing address
resources and renames them for the new namespace to use / reconfigure as
it sees fit. The bug is that this rename only happens in the resource
tracking tree. Existing labels with the old uuid are not reaped leading
to a scenario where multiple active labels reference the same span of
address range.
Teach namespace_update_uuid() to flag any references to the old uuid for
reaping at the next label update attempt.

The UEFI 2.7 specification sets expectations that the 'updating' flag is
eventually cleared. To date, the libnvdimm core has never adhered to
that protocol. The policy of the core matches the policy of other
multi-device info-block formats like MD-Software-RAID that expect
administrator intervention on inconsistent info-blocks, not automatic
invalidation.
However, some pre-boot environments may unfortunately attempt to "clean
up" the labels and invalidate a set when it fails to find at least one
"non-updating" label in the set. Clear the updating flag after set
updates to minimize the window of vulnerability to aggressive pre-boot
environments.
Ideally implementations would not write to the label area outside of
creating namespaces.
Note that this only minimizes the window, it does not close it as the
system can still crash while clearing the flag and the set can be
subsequently deleted / invalidated by the pre-boot environment.

This patch adds logic that is meant to make use of the namespace index data
to reduce the number of reads that are needed to initialize a given
namespace. The general idea is that once we have enough data to validate
the namespace index we do so and then proceed to fetch only those labels
that are not listed as being "free". By doing this I am seeing a total time
reduction from about 4-5 seconds to 2-3 seconds for 24 NVDIMM modules each
with 128K of label config area.

This patch splits the initialization of the label data into two functions.
One for doing the init, and another for reading the actual configuration
data. The idea behind this is that by doing this we create a symmetry
between the getting and setting of config data in that we have a function
for both. In addition it will make it easier for us to identify the bits
that are related to init versus the pieces that are a wrapper for reading
data from the ACPI interface.
So for example by splitting things out like this it becomes much more
obvious that we were performing checks that weren't necessarily related to
the set/get operations such as relying on ndd->data being present when the
set and get ops should not care about a locally cached copy of the label
area.

For v1.1 labels this field is undefined and any setting of
'holder_class' away from the default 'none' value will only have effect

In support of improved interoperability between operating systems and pre-boot

adopted and modified to the the UEFI 2.7 NVDIMM Label Protocol [2].
Update the definitions of the namespace label data structures so that the new
format can be supported alongside the existing label format.
The new specification changes the default label size to 256 bytes, so
everywhere that relied on sizeof(struct nd_namespace_label) must now use the
sizeof_namespace_label() helper.
There should be no functional differences from these changes as the
default is still the v1.1 128-byte format. Future patches will move the
default to the v1.2 definition.

NVDIMM namespaces, in addition to accepting "struct bio" based requests,
also have the capability to perform byte-aligned accesses. By default
only the bio/block interface is used. However, if another driver can
make effective use of the byte-aligned capability it can claim namespace
interface and use the byte-aligned ->rw_bytes() interface.
The BTT driver is the initial first consumer of this mechanism to allow
adding atomic sector update semantics to a pmem or blk namespace. This
patch is the sysfs infrastructure to allow configuring a BTT instance
for a namespace. Enabling that BTT and performing i/o is in a

all the UUIDs match and the interleave set cookie matches the hosting
interleave set.
Present sysfs attributes for manipulation of a PMEM-namespace's
'alt_name', 'uuid', and 'size' attributes. A later patch will make
these settings persistent by writing back the label.
Note that PMEM allocations grow forwards from the start of an interleave
set (lowest dimm-physical-address (DPA)). BLK-namespaces that alias
with a PMEM interleave set will grow allocations backward from the
highest DPA.

This on media label format [1] consists of two index blocks followed by
an array of labels. None of these structures are ever updated in place.
A sequence number tracks the current active index and the next one to
write, while labels are written to free slots.

After reading valid labels, store the dpa ranges they claim into
per-dimm resource trees.
