Bart, let me confirm. Do you suggest

    test() {

        _nvmet_target_setup "$@"

instead of this?

    test() {

        _nvmet_target_setup

If so, it looks weird since "$@" in test() is not the parameters passed to
_nvmet_target_setup(). Anyway, I tried the change with test/nvme/003, and
observed the shellcheck warning disappears. Then, it will work so long as "$@"
is empty in the context of _nvmet_target_setup() caller. Otherwise, it will not
work. For me, your original suggestion to add "ignored_agument" looks better
than "$@". (or in short, "noarg" or something)
