libnvdimm/dimm: Fix security capability detection for non-Intel NVDIMMs
Kees reports a crash with the following signature... RIP: 0010:nvdimm_visible+0x79/0x80 [..] Call Trace: internal_create_group+0xf4/0x380 sysfs_create_groups+0x46/0xb0 device_add+0x331/0x680 nd_async_device_register+0x15/0x60 async_run_entry_fn+0x38/0x100 ...when starting a QEMU environment with "label-less" DIMM. Without labels QEMU does not publish any DSM methods. Without defined methods the NVDIMM_FAMILY type is not established and the nfit driver will skip registering security operations. In that case the security state should be initialized to a negative value in __nvdimm_create() and nvdimm_visible() should skip interrogating the specific ops. However, since 'enum nvdimm_security_state' was only defined to contain positive values the "if (nvdimm->sec.state < 0)" check always fails. Define a negative error state to allow negative state values to be handled as expected.
