[PATCH 1/2] lightnvm: move responsibility for bad blk mgmt to target

From: Matias BjÃrling
Date: Wed Apr 27 2016 - 07:51:04 EST


We move the responsibility of managing the persistent bad block table to
the target. The target may choose to mark a block bad or retry writing
to it. Never the less, it should be the target that makes the decision
and not the media manager.
