Absolutely not. With this logic we have to implement entire NVMe command
set.Current QEMU implementation is lean, I'd like to keep that way and not
bloat it just for the sake of testing unless there is a kernel component
that is consuming MI interface and I don't think so we will have it
anytime soon.
