Excellent point, and most definitely yes. I should have done that
from the beginning.

Yes. I'll just name it "nvme"; after all, that is sufficient and more
consistent with other drivers. Currently, we get something like
	nvme0-pci-0100
	nvme1-pci-2500
if there are multiple drives, where the "0" and "1" are not really
necessary.

Thanks!
