Subject: [PATCH 5.0 030/238] nfit/ars: Attempt short-ARS even in the no_init_ars case

5.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@...el.com>

commit fa3ed4d981b1fc19acdd07fcb152a4bd3706892b upstream.

The no_init_ars option is meant to prevent long-ARS, but short-ARS
should be allowed to grab any immediate results.

Fixes: bc6ba8085842 ("nfit, address-range-scrub: rework and simplify ARS...")
