Some NVDIMMs, like the ones defined by the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL command
set, expose a security capability to lock the DIMMs at poweroff and
require a passphrase to unlock them. The security model is derived from
ATA security. In anticipation of other DIMMs implementing a similar
scheme, and to abstract the core security implementation away from the
device-specific details, introduce nvdimm_security_ops.
Initially only a status retrieval operation, ->state(), is defined,
along with the base infrastructure and definitions for future
operations.

Add command definition for security commands defined in Intel DSM
specification v1.8 [1]. This includes "get security state", "set
passphrase", "unlock unit", "freeze lock", "secure erase", "overwrite",
"overwrite query", "master passphrase enable/disable", and "master
erase", . Since this adds several Intel definitions, move the relevant
bits to their own header.
These commands mutate physical data, but that manipulation is not cache
coherent. The requirement to flush and invalidate caches makes these
commands unsuitable to be called from userspace, so extra logic is added
to detect and block these commands from being submitted via the ioctl
command submission path.
Lastly, the commands may contain sensitive key material that should not
be dumped in a standard debug session. Update the nvdimm-command
payload-dump facility to move security command payloads behind a
default-off compile time switch.

Some NVDIMMs, in addition to providing an indication of whether the
previous shutdown was clean, also provide a running count of lifetime
dirty-shutdown events for the device. In anticipation of this
functionality appearing on more devices arrange for the nfit driver to
retrieve / cache this data at DIMM discovery time, and export it via
sysfs.
