Plain override in case a namespace is fed with both uuid and nguid?

Perhaps we should try to help the user a bit here and either fail
the user trying to populate both in configfs or pick one here.

+ memset(&hdr, 0, sizeof(hdr));
+ hdr.nidt = NVME_NIDT_NGUID;
+ hdr.nidl = NVME_NIDT_NGUID_LEN;
+ status = nvmet_copy_to_sgl(req, off, &hdr, sizeof(hdr));
+ if (status)
+ goto out_put_ns;
+ off += sizeof(hdr);
+
+ status = nvmet_copy_to_sgl(req, off, &ns->nguid,
+ sizeof(ns->nguid));
+ if (status)
+ goto out_put_ns;
+ off += sizeof(ns->nguid);
+ }

If none exist we return whatever the the stack contains in hdr...
Lets initialize hdr with {} at the declaration.
