Thanks for this v2 patch.

I commented for v1 that "unnecsseary change" was made for nmve/036. With that
comment, I meant that one empty line removal was unnecessary. However, you
removed the nsdev check in nvme/036 for v2. I guess you might have misunderstood
my comment then removed the check. I suggest to put back the nsdev check in
nvme/036. If you agree, could you send out v3? Or I can do it when I apply this
patch.

Other than that, this patch looks good to me. Let's wait and see if anyone has
other comments.
