[nvmewin] Revised PMC Patch

[Alex Chang]

Hi all,

Per the feedback from Thomas Freeman at HGST, since the driver doesn't support metadata processing now and to avoid the potential buffer corruption, we will not report the namespace that had been formatted using metadata via Format NVM command. I made the related change in SntiTranslateReportLUNs of nvmeSnti.c and finished all required tests.
Please find the revised patch in attachment and the password is pmc123. Thank you very much, Tom.

Regards,
Alex

Dear all,

It's been a week since I sent out the first version of PMC patch. Thanks to Suman and Judy for the feedback.
Here comes the revised patch (password:pmc123) and the changes include:

1.       New members added in Identify Namespace structure (nvme.h)

2.       Changed _NVMe_VERSION from struct to union (nvmeReg.h)

3.       New translation for Device Identification Page for Inquiry command, which will be approved soon in SCSI-to-NVMe Translation Specification V1.4  (nvmeSntiTypes.h and nvmeSnti.c)

4.       Added including stdlib.h in order to compile the changes in nvmeSnti.c (precomp.h)
Please review/test it at your earliest convenience and provide you feedback. I will start collecting approvals early December.

Thank you very much and Happy Thanksgiving!

Alex
