If you think you need to speel out command please do so as in the spec
instead of uisng strange abbreviations.

That being said the commit log should document the why and the overall
architecture considerations, not low-level details like this.

This wastes a lot of space for all normal non-zns uses.  Please have some
sort of private data field that zns can use.  Why do we even need to store
the whole data structure instead of the few native format fields we need?

Same here.

Needs some documentation on the why.

I don't really see the point of this helper.

This looks weird.  We can want to support the command set identifier in
general, so this should go into common code, and just look up the command
set identifier in the nvmet_ns structure.

Just add this to the caller under an if.  For the if a helper that checks
IS_ENABLED() and the csi would be useful.

I think this should be open coded in the caller.

This will change the limit when a new namespaces is added.  I think we need
to just pick the value of the first namespaces and refuse adding a new
one if the limit is lower to not completely break hosts.

This whole function looks weird.  I'd expect that we mostly (if not
entirely) reuse nvmet_bdev_execute_rw, just using bio_add_hw_page
instead of bio_add_page and setting up the proper op field.

We really do try to avoid these kinds of ifdefs in .c files.  Either
put the stubs inline into the header, of use IS_ENABLED() magic in
the callers.  In this case I think the new helper I mentioned above
which checks IS_ENABLED + the csi seems like the right way.
