After 'uuid', 'size', and optionally 'alt_name' have been set to valid
values the labels on the dimms can be updated.

Write procedure is:
1/ Allocate and write new labels in the "next" index
2/ Free the old labels in the working copy
3/ Write the bitmap and the label space on the dimm
4/ Write the index to make the update valid

Label ranges directly mirror the dpa resource values for the given
label_id of the namespace.

A blk label set describes a namespace comprised of one or more
discontiguous dpa ranges on a single dimm.  They may alias with one or
more pmem interleave sets that include the given dimm.

This is the runtime/volatile configuration infrastructure for sysfs
manipulation of 'alt_name', 'uuid', 'size', and 'sector_size'.  A later
patch will make these settings persistent by writing back the label(s).

Unlike pmem namespaces, multiple blk namespaces can be created per
region.  Once a blk namespace has been created a new seed device
(unconfigured child of a parent blk region) is instantiated.  As long as
a region has 'available_size' != 0 new child namespaces may be created.

A complete label set is a PMEM-label per-dimm per-interleave-set where
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.

On platforms that have firmware support for reading/writing per-dimm
label space, a portion of the dimm may be accessible via an interleave
set PMEM mapping in addition to the dimm's BLK (block-data-window
aperture(s)) interface.  A label, stored in a "configuration data
region" on the dimm, disambiguates which dimm addresses are accessed
through which exclusive interface.

Add infrastructure that allows the kernel to block modifications to a
label in the set while any member dimm is active.  Note that this is
meant only for enforcing "no modifications of active labels" via the
coarse ioctl command.  Adding/deleting namespaces from an active
interleave set is always possible via sysfs.

Another aspect of tracking interleave sets is tracking their integrity
when DIMMs in a set are physically re-ordered.  For this purpose we
generate an "interleave-set cookie" that can be recorded in a label and
validated against the current configuration.  It is the bus provider
implementation's responsibility to calculate the interleave set cookie
and attach it to a given region.

The libnvdimm region driver is an intermediary driver that translates
non-volatile "region"s into "namespace" sub-devices that are surfaced by
persistent memory block-device drivers (PMEM and BLK).

ACPI 6 introduces the concept that a given nvdimm may simultaneously
offer multiple access modes to its media through direct PMEM load/store
access, or windowed BLK mode.  Existing nvdimms mostly implement a PMEM
interface, some offer a BLK-like mode, but never both as ACPI 6 defines.
If an nvdimm is single interfaced, then there is no need for dimm
metadata labels.  For these devices we can take the region boundaries
directly to create a child namespace device (nd_namespace_io).

A "region" device represents the maximum capacity of a BLK range (mmio
block-data-window(s)), or a PMEM range (DAX-capable persistent memory or
volatile memory), without regard for aliasing.  Aliasing, in the
dimm-local address space (DPA), is resolved by metadata on a dimm to
designate which exclusive interface will access the aliased DPA ranges.
Support for the per-dimm metadata/label arrvies is in a subsequent
patch.

The name format of "region" devices is "regionN" where, like dimms, N is
a global ida index assigned at discovery time.  This id is not reliable
across reboots nor in the presence of hotplug.  Look to attributes of
the region or static id-data of the sub-namespace to generate a
persistent name.  However, if the platform configuration does not change
it is reasonable to expect the same region id to be assigned at the next
boot.

"region"s have 2 generic attributes "size", and "mapping"s where:
- size: the BLK accessible capacity or the span of the
  system physical address range in the case of PMEM.

- mappingN: a tuple describing a dimm's contribution to the region's
  capacity in the format (<nmemX>,<dpa>,<size>).  For a PMEM-region
  there will be at least one mapping per dimm in the interleave set.  For
  a BLK-region there is only "mapping0" listing the starting DPA of the
  BLK-region and the available DPA capacity of that space (matches "size"
  above).

The max number of mappings per "region" is hard coded per the
constraints of sysfs attribute groups.  That said the number of mappings
per region should never exceed the maximum number of possible dimms in
the system.  If the current number turns out to not be enough then the
"mappings" attribute clarifies how many there are supposed to be. "32
should be enough for anybody...".

* Implement the device-model infrastructure for loading modules and
  attaching drivers to nvdimm devices.  This is a simple association of a
  nd-device-type number with a driver that has a bitmask of supported
  device types.  To facilitate userspace bind/unbind operations 'modalias'
  and 'devtype', that also appear in the uevent, are added as generic
  sysfs attributes for all nvdimm devices.  The reason for the device-type
  number is to support sub-types within a given parent devtype, be it a
  vendor-specific sub-type or otherwise.

* The first consumer of this infrastructure is the driver
  for dimm devices.  It simply uses control messages to retrieve and
  store the configuration-data image (label set) from each dimm.

Note: nd_device_register() arranges for asynchronous registration of
      nvdimm bus devices by default.
