Lightnvm supports the OCSSD 1.x and 2.0 specs which were early attempts
to produce Open Channel SSDs and never made it into the NVMe spec
proper.  They have since been superceeded by NVMe enhancements such
as ZNS support.  Remove the support per the deprecation schedule.

The sector bits in the erase command may be uninitialized are
uninitialized, causing the erase LBA to be unaligned to the chunk size.

This is unexpected situation, since erase shall always be chunk
aligned based on OCSSD the 2.0 specification.

<id>urn:sha1:0586942f03b71bc95b0ee356ff6b09d53acbad06</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch fixes a race condition where a write is mapped to the last
sectors of a line. The write is synced to the device but the L2P is not
updated yet. When the line is garbage collected before the L2P update
is performed, the sectors are ignored by the GC logic and the line is
freed before all sectors are moved. When the L2P is finally updated, it
contains a mapping to a freed line, subsequent reads of the
corresponding LBAs fail.

This patch introduces a per line counter specifying the number of
sectors that are synced to the device but have not been updated in the
L2P. Lines with a counter of greater than zero will not be selected
for GC.

<title>lightnvm: pblk: support packed metadata</title>

pblk performs recovery of open lines by storing the LBA in the per LBA
metadata field. Recovery therefore only works for drives that has this
field.

This patch adds support for packed metadata, which store l2p mapping
for open lines in last sector of every write unit and enables drives
without per IO metadata to recover open lines.

After this patch, drives with OOB size &lt;16B will use packed metadata
and metadata size larger than16B will continue to use the device per
IO metadata.

pblk currently assumes that size of OOB metadata on drive is always
equal to size of pblk_sec_meta struct. This commit add helpers which will
allow to handle different sizes of OOB metadata on drive in the future.

After this patch only OOB metadata equal to 16 bytes is supported.

<title>lightnvm: pblk: remove debug from pblk_[down/up]_page</title>

<content type='text'>
Remove the debug only iteration within __pblk_down_page, which
then allows us to reduce the number of arguments down to pblk and
the parallel unit from the functions that calls it. Simplifying the
callers logic considerably.

Also, rename the functions pblk_[down/up]_page to
pblk_[down/up]_chunk, to communicate that it manages the write
pointer of the chunk. Note that it also protects the parallel unit
such that at most one chunk is active per parallel unit.

<id>urn:sha1:d68a9344041b6dd304ff382d0c7805869f09944f</id>
<content type='text'>
There is a number of places in the lightnvm subsystem where the user
iterates over the ppa list. Before iterating, the user must know if it
is a single or multiple LBAs due to vector commands using either the
nvm_rq -&gt;ppa_addr or -&gt;ppa_list fields on command submission, which
leads to open-coding the if/else statement.

Instead of having multiple if/else's, move it into a function that can
be called by its users.

A nice side effect of this cleanup is that this patch fixes up a
bunch of cases where we don't consider the single-ppa case in pblk.
