d7a64d275b lightnvm: reference rrpc lun in rrpc block
Currently, a rrpc block only points to its nvm_lun. If a user wants to
find the associated rrpc lun, it will have to calculate the index and
look it up manually. By referencing the rrpc lun directly, this step can
be omitted, at the cost of a larger memory footprint.

This is important for upcoming patches that implement write buffering in
rrpc.

b7ceb7d500 lightnvm: refactor phys addrs type to u64
For cases where CONFIG_LBDAF is not set. The struct ppa_addr exceeds its
type on 32 bit architectures. ppa_addr requires a 64bit integer to hold
the generic ppa format. We therefore refactor it to u64 and
replaces the sector_t usages with u64 for physical addresses.

ae1519ec44 rrpc: Round-robin sector target with cost-based gc
This target allows an Open-Channel SSD to be exposed asas a block
device.

It implements a round-robin approach for sector allocation,
together with a greedy cost-based garbage collector.
