libnvdimm/btt: Fix LBA masking during 'free list' population
The Linux BTT implementation assumes that log entries will never have the 'zero' flag set, and indeed it never sets that flag for log entries itself. However, the UEFI spec is ambiguous on the exact format of the LBA field of a log entry, specifically as to whether it should include the additional flag bits or not. While a zero bit doesn't make sense in the context of a log entry, other BTT implementations might still have it set. If an implementation does happen to have it set, we would happily read it in as the next block to write to for writes. Since a high bit is set, it pushes the block number out of the range of an 'arena', and we fail such a write with an EIO. Follow the robustness principle, and tolerate such implementations by stripping out the zero flag when populating the free list during initialization. Additionally, use the same stripped out entries for detection of incomplete writes and map restoration that happens at this stage. Add a sysfs file 'log_zero_flags' that indicates the ability to accept such a layout to userspace applications. This enables 'ndctl check-namespace' to recognize whether the kernel is able to handle zero flags, or whether it should attempt a fix-up under the --repair option.
