Hi Neeraj,

A few things inline from a fresh read.

Thanks,

Always initialized anyway before use I think. So no need to do it here.

Seems to always be initialized before use anyway so no need to do it here.

In line with much of the nvdimm stuff I'd use guard and save a couple of lines.

	guard(nvdimm_bus)(&nd_region->dev);
	return nd_pmem_region_label_update(nd_region);

uuid_import() perhaps more appropriate given it is coming(I think)
from a __u8 &.

I'd match style of next function and not have the local variable.

	return uuid_equal(&cxl_region_uuid,
			  (uuid_t *)lsa_label->region_label.type);

Dave pointed out that there shouldn't be a space after the cast.
Make sure you catch all of these.

Perhaps add a little justification to the patch description on why these
get/set are helpful? Seems like just setting them directly would perhaps
be fine as all call sites can see the structure definition anyway?
