I have to agree. Creating a whole new tree for passthru seems a lot less intuitive than adding a single passthru field to the subsystem tree.

Pretty please can we call it passthru? pt is totally incompressible to the casual reader...

BTW we did test this series on one of our x86_64 target setups and it did a great job passing our vendor specific admin commands through to the NVMe namespaces.
