Subject: target: Allow non-supporting backends to set pi_prot_type to 0
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=448ba904160f9d8f69217c28a1692cee5afbff88;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

target: Allow non-supporting backends to set pi_prot_type to 0

Userspace tools assume if a value is read from configfs, it is valid
and will not cause an error if the same value is written back. The only
valid value for pi_prot_type for backends not supporting DIF is 0, so allow
this particular value to be set without returning an error.
