nvmet-passthru: clear EUID/NGUID/UUID while using loop target
When nvme passthru is configured using loop target, the clear_ids attribute is, by default, set to true. This attribute would ensure that EUID/NGUID/UUID is cleared for the loop passthru target. The newer NVMe disk supporting the NVMe spec 1.3 or higher, typically, implements the support for "Namespace Identification Descriptor list" command. This command when issued from host returns EUID/NGUID/UUID assigned to the inquired namespace. Not clearing these values, while using nvme passthru using loop target, would result in NVMe host driver rejecting the namespace. This check was implemented in the commit 2079f41e ("nvme: check that EUI/GUID/UUID are globally unique"). The fix implemented in this commit ensure that when host issues ns-id descriptor list command, the EUID/NGUID/UUID are cleared by passthru target. In fact, the function nvmet_passthru_override_id_descs() which clears those unique ids already exits, so we just need to ensure that ns-id descriptor list command falls through the corretc code path. And while we're at it, we also combines the three passthru admin command cases together which shares the same code.
