Igor Konopko 2c4d5356e6 lightnvm: pblk: do not overwrite ppa list with meta list
Ehen using pblk with 0 sized metadata both ppa list and meta list
points to the same memory since pblk_dma_meta_size() returns 0 in
that case.

This patch fix that issue by ensuring that pblk_dma_meta_size()
always returns space equal to sizeof(struct pblk_sec_meta) and thus
ppa list and meta list points to different memory address.

Even that in that case drive does not really care about meta_list
pointer, this is the easiest way to fix that issue without introducing
changes in many places in the code just for 0 sized metadata case.

The same approach needs to be also done for pblk_get_sec_meta()
since we also cannot point to the same memory address in meta buffer
when we are using it for pblk recovery process

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
