[PATCH] lightnvm: pblk: don't recover unwritten lines

From: hans . ml . holmberg
Date: Wed Feb 21 2018 - 03:23:04 EST


From: Hans Holmberg <hans.holmberg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

If the line has not been written to, we should not
try to recover any data from it, so check the state of the
chunks in the line before attempting to read smeta.

NOTE: This patch applies on top of the 2.0 patches since it depends
on chunk data structures to be in place.
