It would be. However,

1. I wasn't sure how future proof we wanted it and I might have
misinterpreted Chaitanya's original review comment. The part of
the comment about handling "every new nvme_type" made me think that
we were worried there would be new types in the future. So I thought
we wanted it to be really generic and be able to handle cases where
the values could be funky like -1 in the future.

2. I also need to go from NVME_PR type to PR type, so we need a
second array. So we can either have 2 arrays or 1 array and 2
loops (the next patch in this set added the second loop).
If we don't care about #1 then I can I see 2 arrays is nicer.
