    acpi, nfit: add support for the _LSI, _LSR, and _LSW label methods · 4b27db7e

    ACPI 6.2 adds support for named methods to access the label storage area
    of an NVDIMM. We prefer these new methods if available and otherwise
    fallback to the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL _DSMs. The kernel ioctls,
    ND_IOCTL_{GET,SET}_CONFIG_{SIZE,DATA}, remain generic and the driver
    translates the 'package' payloads into the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL 'buffer'
    format to maintain compatibility with existing userspace and keep the
    output buffer parsing code in the driver common.
    
    The output payloads are mostly compatible save for the 'label area
    locked' status that moves from the 'config_size' (_LSI) command to the
    'config_read' (_LSR) command status.
