NVDIMM: Use block write for nvdimm update
In an effort to speed up the nvdimm update, full 32-byte blocks can now be sent via I2C SMBUS with no initial byte count byte. Since a block write seems more prone to random system interrupt, this code should be restricted to run on v3.A or beyond which has the timeout increased to mitigate these interrupts. Test results have shown about a 5 minute improvement per NVDIMM.
