[PATCHv2 2/7] nvme: allow integrity on extended metadata formats

From: Keith Busch
Date: Tue Feb 01 2022 - 14:01:38 EST


The block integrity subsystem knows how to construct protection
information buffers with metadata beyond the protection information
fields. Remove the driver restriction.

Note, this can only work if the PI field appears first in the metadata,
as the integrity subsystem doesn't calculate guard tags on preceding
metadata.
