This depends very much on how the FS / application is managing

Can we enable this use case to start with?

I think this already provides that. You can set the nsid value to
whatever you want in the passthrough interface, so a namespace block
device is not required to issue I/O to a ZNS namespace from user space.

Mmmmm. Problem now is that the check on the nvme driver prevents the ZNS
namespace from being initialized. Am I missing something?

Thanks,
