During last week I had to shuffle some of my NVME drives between
systems. One of those systems is Solidrun Honeycomb which uses
LX2160A SoC.
The problem is that I am unable to use Samsung PM991 NVME there.
It is 2242 card so probably also DRAMless. Kernel says:
nvme 0004:01:00.0: Adding to iommu group 4
nvme nvme0: pci function 0004:01:00.0
nvme nvme0: missing or invalid SUBNQN field.
nvme nvme0: 1/0/0 default/read/poll queues
nvme 0004:01:00.0: VPD access failed. This is likely a firmware bug on this device. Contact the card vendor for a firmware update
The SUBNQN part can be handled by adding quirk in nvme/core.c file
but that does not change situation. It also does not appear when
used in x86-64 system.
Card is visible but only as PCIe device, no NVME block devices.

Any idea what can be wrong? Other than usual "it is fault of
used PCI Express implementation".
NOTE: Honeycomb does not expose root ports to the OS.
