libnvdimm, namespace: fix btt claim class crash
Maurice reports: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 IP: holder_class_store+0x253/0x2b0 [libnvdimm] ...while trying to reconfigure an NVDIMM-N namespace into 'sector' / 'btt' mode. The crash points to this line: (gdb) li *(holder_class_store+0x253) 0x7773 is in holder_class_store (drivers/nvdimm/namespace_devs.c:1420). 1415 for (i = 0; i < nd_region->ndr_mappings; i++) { 1416 struct nd_mapping *nd_mapping = &nd_region->mapping[i]; 1417 struct nvdimm_drvdata *ndd = to_ndd(nd_mapping); 1418 struct nd_namespace_index *nsindex; 1419 1420 nsindex = to_namespace_index(ndd, ndd->ns_current); ...where we are failing because ndd is NULL due to NVDIMM-N dimms not supporting labels. Long story short, default to the BTTv1 format in the label-less / NVDIMM-N case.
