That's only supported for NVMe 1.1 and higher devices, and optional.
For older or stupid devices we need to support the algorithm based
on the serial attribute from nvme_fill_device_id_scsi_string() in
drivers/nvme/host/scsi.c.

Which btw is Ń–ncorrect as it doesn't identify namespaces properly,
and thus the associatation of 0 is an actively harmful lie.
