(forgot to remove the debug prints)
But this is what the current return value is if something goes wrong.
The other transport map all status codes to -EIO or return the negative
error code from the function which fails. I'd rather not change this in
this series.

Without changing user space, the old behavior will be used. It's an
opt-in feature. I haven't finished the libnvme/nvme-cli changes but I
expect for getting all working the udev rules need to be modified as
well. My plan is to get the kernel bits finished up first before
tackling all the user bits in detail, e.g. also creating blktests for
this (in a way we have the first one which is nvme/041)
I'll post those changes here as it needs wider review for sure.
