I think so to.

I'm also proposing virtio-console function driver[1]. I suppose the 
virtio function
driver and your nvme function driver are the same in that the spec is 
defined and
host side driver must work as is.

Could you submit the your changes if you can?

I'd like to solve the current EPC limitation for the mapping in a better 
way and avoid doing similar work.
