Subject: [PATCH 0/8] lightnvm: cleanups and support for vector ioctls

A couple of patches. The first seven patches is cleanup patches, that
cleans up the codebase for when pblk is added to the kernel, and
prepare the code such that a device can be used as a normal block device
(as long as the access rules are respected).

The last patch adds ioctls for vectored I/Os, which enables liblightnvm
to integrate without any kernel modifications.
