Subject: nfit, address-range-scrub: add module option to skip initial ars
Patch-mainline: v4.17-rc1
Git-commit: bca811a7fd5a5c1c0644926161c2843322ab74b3
References: bsc#1094119

After attempting to quickly retrieve known errors the kernel proceeds to
kick off a long running ARS. Add a module option to disable this
behavior at initialization time, or at new region discovery time.
Otherwise, ARS can be started manually regardless of the state of this
setting.
