None of this is in scope for the NVMe spec, so I don't really want
to deal with it in the NVMe driver in any way.  Given that a SD
express card just turns into a normal PCIe link if you really want
to check that something probed I think you'd want to track if any
PCIe driver is bound to the device.  Or just wait and see if we really
need anything after all.
