Setup Mountpoint CSI driver.

First setup mountpoint following the instructions in the docs.

Steps to setup nvme w/ mountpoint:

Next we'll tell S3 Mountpoint to cache on the 28TB of local NVME available on each P5 instance.

1. Mount the nvme disks as a single mount - this needs to be done on each p5 instance:

/bin/setup-local-disks raid0

2. Check to see if they got mounted:

$ df -h
...
/dev/md127       28T  216G   28T   1% /mnt/k8s-disks/0

3. Next mount that volume on the container:

volumeMounts:
  - name: local-nvme
    mountPath: /opt/nvme
...
volumes:
  - name: local-nvme
    hostPath:
      path: /mnt/k8s-disks/0

4. Enable it in S3 Mountpoint CSI plugin

- cache /opt/nvme # specify cache directory, relative to root host filesystem
                              # the directory must be unique per mount on a host
