Hi Ira,
Actually above is required changes and not the cleanup.
Earlier condition (!ndd->cxl && !efi_namespace_label_has(ndd, checksum))
was getting true (no further processing) in first case only if its a
region label which we don't want in current case.
And this condition (!efi_namespace_label_has(ndd, checksum)) returns false
(means proceed further) in case if its a region label (!!ndd->cxl).
Regards,
Neeraj
