[v2,7/8] linux/uuid.h: hoist uuid_is_null() helper from libnvdimm

Commit Message

Amir Goldstein May 4, 2017, 1:26 p.m. UTC

Hoist the libnvdimm helper as an inline helper to linux/uuid.h
using an auxiliary const variable uuid_null in lib/uuid.c.

The common helper uses the new abstract type uuid_t* instead of
u8*.

No strange casts please, change parent_uuid to be an actual uuid_t
instead.
