If you wan to send the RFC with the block device that is ok.  But I
think the separate character device is pretty trivial, at least for
NVM command set derived command sets like ZNS (for others we'll need
to finish the Command Set Independent Identify Namespace TP first).

I'd rath avoid adding more of that capacity 0 mess if we can.  Especially
as the character device should be really easy to do.
