Presently after performing an inject-smart command the nvdimm flags reported are
out of date as shown below where no 'smart_notify' or 'flush_fail' flags were
reported even though they are set after injecting the smart error:

$ sudo ndctl inject-smart -fU nmem0
[
  {
    "dev":"nmem0",
    "health":{
      "health_state":"fatal",
      "shutdown_state":"dirty",
      "shutdown_count":0
    }
  }
]
$ sudo cat /sys/class/nd/ndctl0/device/nmem0/papr/flags
flush_fail smart_notify

This happens because nvdimm flags are only parsed once during its probe
and not refreshed even after a inject-smart operation makes them out of
date. To fix this the patch forces an update of nvdimm flags via newly
introduced export from libndctl named ndctl_dimm_refresh_flags() thats called
from dimm_inject_smart() after inject-smart command is successfully
submitted. This ensures that correct nvdimm flags are displayed later in that
function. With this implemented correct nvdimm flags are reported after a
inject-smart operation:

$ sudo ndctl inject-smart -fU nmem0
[
  {
    "dev":"nmem0",
    "flag_failed_flush":true,
    "flag_smart_event":true,
    "health":{
      "health_state":"fatal",
      "shutdown_state":"dirty",
      "shutdown_count":0
    }
  }
]

The patch refactors populate_dimm_attributes() to move the nvdimm flags
parsing code to the newly introduced ndctl_dimm_refresh_flags()
export. Since reading nvdimm flags requires constructing path using
'bus_prefix' which is only available during add_dimm(), the patch
introduces a new member 'struct ndctl_dimm.bus_prefix' to cache its
value. During ndctl_dimm_refresh_flags() the cached bus_prefix is used to
read the contents of the nvdimm flag file and pass it on to the appropriate
flag parsing function. Finally dimm_inject_smart() is updated to issue call to
ndctl_dimm_refresh_flags() before generating json output of the nvdimm status

Changelog:

Since v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/nvdimm/[email protected]

* Instead of updating nvdimm flags in cmd_submit() only refresh when for
inject-smart command [ Vishal ]
* Added the export of ndctl_dimm_refresh_flags() to libndctl exports [ Vishal ]
* Updated changes to add_dimm() to make then more readable [ Vishal ]
* Updated patch description.
