[ndctl,v5,0/7] Improvements for namespace creation/interrogation

Message

Changes since v4:
- One more static analysis fixup, this time in "ndctl/dimm: Add offset
  and size options to {read,write,zero}-labels".

---

This trimmed version includes the extent support for label operations
which significantly speeds up common label operations like
'init-labels'. It also fixes up some surprising results from
'create-namespace' where it would fail even though available capacity is
present.

Dan Williams (7):
      ndctl/dimm: Support small label reads/writes
      ndctl/dimm: Minimize data-transfer for init-labels
      ndctl/dimm: Add offset and size options to {read,write,zero}-labels
      ndctl/dimm: Limit read-labels with --index option
      ndctl/namespace: Minimize label data transfer for autolabel
      ndctl/namespace: Continue region search on 'missing seed' event
      ndctl/namespace: Report ENOSPC when regions are full
