Will adding a new read-only sysfs attribute (under the group [*]) that 
publishes all valid combinations be fine?

With Guard/Reftag/Apptag, we get 6 combinations.
For NVMe, all can be valid. For SCSI, maximum 4 can be valid. And we 
factor the pi-type in while listing what all is valid.
For example: 010 or 001 is not valid for SCSI and should not be shown by 
this.
