Javier González a7c9e9109c lightnvm: pass flag on graceful teardown to targets
If the namespace is unregistered before the LightNVM target is removed
(e.g., on hot unplug) it is too late for the target to store any metadata
on the device - any attempt to write to the device will fail. In this
case, pass on a "gracefull teardown" flag to the target to let it know
when this happens.

In the case of pblk, we pad the open line (close all open chunks) to
improve data retention. In the event of an ungraceful shutdown, avoid
this part and just clean up.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
