[RFC PATCH 2/3] mm/nvdimm: Add page size and struct page size to pfn superblock

This is needed so that we don't wrongly initialize a namespace
which doesn't have enough space reserved for holding struct pages
with the current kernel.

We also increment PFN_MIN_VERSION to make sure that older kernel
won't initialize namespace created with newer kernel.
