sed-opal: geometry feature reporting command



Locking range start and locking range length
attributes may be require to satisfy restrictions
exposed by OPAL2 geometry feature reporting.

Geometry reporting feature is described in TCG OPAL SSC,
section 3.1.1.4 (ALIGN, LogicalBlockSize, AlignmentGranularity
and LowestAlignedLBA).

4.3.5.2.1.1 RangeStart Behavior:

[ StartAlignment = (RangeStart modulo AlignmentGranularity) - LowestAlignedLBA ]

When processing a Set method or CreateRow method on the Locking
table for a non-Global Range row, if:

a) the AlignmentRequired (ALIGN above) column in the LockingInfo
   table is TRUE;
b) RangeStart is non-zero; and
c) StartAlignment is non-zero, then the method SHALL fail and
   return an error status code INVALID_PARAMETER.

4.3.5.2.1.2 RangeLength Behavior:

If RangeStart is zero, then
	[ LengthAlignment = (RangeLength modulo AlignmentGranularity) - LowestAlignedLBA ]

If RangeStart is non-zero, then
	[ LengthAlignment = (RangeLength modulo AlignmentGranularity) ]

When processing a Set method or CreateRow method on the Locking
table for a non-Global Range row, if:

a) the AlignmentRequired (ALIGN above) column in the LockingInfo
   table is TRUE;
b) RangeLength is non-zero; and
c) LengthAlignment is non-zero, then the method SHALL fail and
   return an error status code INVALID_PARAMETER

In userspace we stuck to logical block size reported by general
block device (via sysfs or ioctl), but we can not read
'AlignmentGranularity' or 'LowestAlignedLBA' anywhere else and
we need to get those values from sed-opal interface otherwise
we will not be able to report or avoid locking range setup
INVALID_PARAMETER errors above.
