Currently create-namespace creates two namespaces with the '-f' option
even without the greedy flag. This behavior got introduced by
c75f7236d. The earlier behaviour was to create one namespace even with
the '-f' flag. The earlier behavior:

$ sudo ./ndctl/ndctl create-namespace -s 16M -f
[sudo] password for santosh:
{
  "dev":"namespace1.14",
  "mode":"fsdax",
  "map":"dev",
  "size":"14.00 MiB (14.68 MB)",
  "uuid":"03f6b921-7684-4736-b2be-87f021996e52",
  "sector_size":512,
  "align":65536,
  "blockdev":"pmem1.14"
}

After greedy option was introduced:

$ sudo ./ndctl/ndctl create-namespace -s 16M -f
{
  "dev":"namespace1.8",
  "mode":"fsdax",
  "map":"dev",
  "size":"14.00 MiB (14.68 MB)",
  "uuid":"1a9d6610-558b-454e-8b95-76c6201798cb",
  "sector_size":512,
  "align":65536,
  "blockdev":"pmem1.8"
}
{
  "dev":"namespace0.3",
  "mode":"fsdax",
  "map":"dev",
  "size":"14.00 MiB (14.68 MB)",
  "uuid":"eed9d28b-69a2-4c7c-9503-24e8aee87b1e",
  "sector_size":512,
  "align":65536,
  "blockdev":"pmem0.3"
}

The force flag makes sense only in the case of a reconfiguration or
greedy namespace creation.

Fixes: c75f7236d (ndctl/namespace: add a --continue option to create namespaces 
greedily)
