Currently the geometry of an OCSSD is enumerated using a two step approach: First, nvm_register is called, the OCSSD identify command is issued, and second the geometry sos and csecs values are read either from the OCSSD identify if it is a 1.2 drive, or from the NVMe namespace data structure if it is a 2.0 device. This patch recombines it into a single step, such that nvm_register can use the csecs and sos fields independent of which version is used. This enables one to dynamically size the lightnvm subsystem dma pool.

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.
