Greg Kroah-Hartman 08cf860b84 lightnvm: disable the subsystem
In commit 9ea9b9c483 ("remove the lightnvm subsystem") the lightnvm
subsystem was removed as there is no hardware in the wild for it, and
the code is known to have problems.  This should also be disabled for
older LTS kernels as well to prevent anyone from accidentally using it.

bool "Open-Channel SSD target support"
depends on BLOCK && HAS_DMA && BROKEN
help
Say Y here to get to enable Open-channel SSDs.
Open-Channel SSDs implement a set of extension to SSDs, that
exposes direct access to the underlying non-volatile memory.
If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and disabled
only do this if you know what you are doing.
if NVM
config NVM_DEBUG
bool "Open-Channel SSD debugging support"
default n
---help---
Exposes a debug management interface to create/remove targets at:
/sys/module/lnvm/parameters/configure_debug
It is required to create/remove targets without IOCTLs.
config NVM_GENNVM
tristate "General Non-Volatile Memory Manager for Open-Channel SSDs"
---help---
Non-volatile memory media manager for Open-Channel SSDs that implements
physical media metadata management and block provisioning API.
This is the standard media manager for using Open-Channel SSDs, and
required for targets to be instantiated.
config NVM_RRPC
tristate "Round-robin Hybrid Open-Channel SSD target"
---help---
Allows an open-channel SSD to be exposed as a block device to the
host. The target is implemented using a linear mapping table and
cost-based garbage collection. It is optimized for 4K IO sizes.
