Changes look mostly good, but trigger a behavior change for non-PI
metadata format.
Earlier nop profile was registered for that case. And the block-layer
continued to attach an appropriately sized meta buffer to incoming IO, even
though it did not generate/verify. Hence, IOs don't fail.
Now also we show that the nop profile is set, but the above
"csum_type" check ensures that
meta buffer is not attached and REQ_INTEGRITY is not set in the bio.
NVMe will start failing IOs with BLK_STS_NOTSUPP now [*].

if (!blk_integrity_rq(req)) {
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!nvme_ns_has_pi(ns->head)))
return BLK_STS_NOTSUPP;
control |= NVME_RW_PRINFO_PRACT;
}
