Btw, nvmet needs something similar for controller creation, like how
target_port_op works with target_alloc_session(), so hw capabilities can
signal to host controllers when PI should be enabled for a namespace,
but actual namespace backends don't support it.

Eg: TARGET_PROT_DOUT_STRIP and TARGET_PROT_DIN_INSERT ops
