Does anyone on this list have access to NVMe Key Value command set
devices? Those would be a good test bed to check support for the
I/O Command Set Independent Identify Namespace data structure which
would allow us to support the passthrough device nodes for arbitrary
command sets.

I do not have it handy, but I think at this moment there is nothing in
the nvme-driver that limits block-interface for KV. Are you thinking
of restricting char/passthrough only access?

The block interface obviously will not work with KV at all. But what
I'd like to do is to offer the passthrough interface for all command
sets, including those unknown to the driver. Which would be pretty
simple, but I'd rather not land untested code.
