Subject: [RFC 2/7] nvme: allow integrity on extended metadata formats

The block integrity subsystem knows how to construct protection
information buffers with metadata beyond the protection information
fields. Remove the driver restriction.

Note, this can only work if the PI field appears first in the metadata,
as the integrity subsystem doesn't update guard tags on preceding
metadata.
