Introduce segment.{c,h}, an internal abstraction that encapsulates
everything related to a single pcache *segment* (the fixed-size
allocation unit stored on the cache-device).
* On-disk metadata (`struct pcache_segment_info`)
- Embedded `struct pcache_meta_header` for CRC/sequence handling.
- `flags` field encodes a “has-next” bit and a 4-bit *type* class
(`CACHE_DATA` added as the first type).
* Initialisation
- `pcache_segment_init()` populates the in-memory
`struct pcache_segment` from a given segment id, data offset and
metadata pointer, computing the usable `data_size` and virtual
address within the DAX mapping.
* IO helpers
- `segment_copy_to_bio()` / `segment_copy_from_bio()` move data
between pmem and a bio, using `_copy_mc_to_iter()` and
`_copy_from_iter_flushcache()` to tolerate hw memory errors and
ensure durability.
- `segment_pos_advance()` advances an internal offset while staying
inside the segment’s data area.
These helpers allow upper layers (cache key management, write-back
logic, GC, etc.) to treat a segment as a contiguous byte array without
knowing about DAX mappings or persistence details.

The comment is fairly obvious given the type of the field. I'd drop the comment.
Hi Jonathan,
Sounds not bad, will change it.
Thanx
