libnvdimm, btt: ensure that initializing metadata clears poison
If we had badblocks/poison in the metadata area of a BTT, recreating the
BTT would not clear the poison in all cases, notably the flog area. This
is because rw_bytes will only clear errors if the request being sent
down is 512B aligned and sized.
Make sure that when writing the map and info blocks, the rw_bytes being
sent are of the correct size/alignment. For the flog, instead of doing
the smaller log_entry writes only, first do a 'wipe' of the entire area
by writing zeroes in large enough chunks so that errors get cleared.
