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.
