Similar to the previous patch, this adds support for near storage commands.

Is any of these new functions ever called?
This is my concern as well. The libnvdimm command support is limited
to the commands that Linux will use. Other passthrough commands are
supported through a passthrough interface. However, that passthrough
interface is explicitly limited to publicly documented command sets so
that the kernel has an opportunity to constrain and consolidate
command implementations across vendors.
