This patch helps with that but other helpers introduced in this series
would require minor changes.

As far as I can see, you'd only have to adjust _create_nvmet_passthru()
to take an optional argument because, presently, it always uses
$_test_dev_nvme_ctrl for the backing device.

This can easily be done if and when someone writes such a test.

However, I'm not even sure right now if that test would pass in the
kernel as is -- it seems like an odd thing to do.
