We mentioned exposing a single sysfs handle that provides the unique so
the user doesn't have to check/concat multiple files or use the deprecated
NVMe SG_IO interface.

Does the below patch look alright? It uses either 64 or 128 bit EUI if
provided, or concats other parts to make a unique (and long!) identifier
if the namespace doesn't support its own unique id.

Here's a couple examples with a 1.0 controller and a 1.2 controller
(I don't have a 1.1 controller; no EUI-64 example):

  1.0:
    # cat /sys/block/nvme0n1/wwid
    nvme.8086-43564654343032333030324b38303043474e-494e54454c205353445045444d443830304734-00000001

  1.2:
    # cat /sys/block/nvme1n2/wwid
    eui.5cd2e400000000000000000000000100000002
