[PATCH v5 17/28] null_blk: Introduce fua attribute

Wed Apr 3 01:42:36 PDT 2024
Add the fua configfs attribute and module parameter to allow
configuring if the device supports FUA or not. Using this attribute
has an effect on the null_blk device only if memory backing is enabled
together with a write cache (cache_size option).
This new attribute allows configuring a null_blk device with a write
cache but without FUA support. This is convenient to test the block
layer flush machinery.
