I think the two changes should be in different patches, splitting the
namespace "features" flags from nvme_request "has_pi". I'm not even
sure there's a need for the per-IO settings and checks for "has_pi",
though. I don't find any transport driver changes in this series using
this flag outside this patch.

A little simpler:

		if (id->flbas & NVME_NS_FLBAS_META_EXT)
			ns->features |= NVME_NS_EXT_LBAS;
		else if (ns->ctrl->ops->flags & NVME_F_METADATA_SUPPORTED)
			ns->features |= NVME_NS_DIX_SUPPORTED;

It's not really a "DIX" flag since we can observe separate metadata
formats for non-DIX related use. Can we use a more generic name for this
feature flag? maybe "NVME_NS_MS_SEPARATE".
