nvme_validate_or_alloc_ns already does the nvme_identify_ns_cs_indep, so
we should be able to reuse it or move it here.

This is pretty ugly.  I think if there is no command set idepdent
structure supported, we should probably just fake one up based on the
legacy Identify Namespace.

And here we should do a switch on ids->csi ala:

	 switch (ids.csi) {
	 case NVME_CSI_NVM:
	 case NVME_CSI_ZNS:
	 	ret = nvme_update_ns_info_block(ns, id);
		break
	default:
		nvme_update_ns_info_generic(ns, iid);
		break;
	}
