I'm completely interesting in adding code to the nvme driver that is
just intended for benchmarketing. The fixed buffers are nice for
benchmarking and a very small number of real use cases (e.g. fixed size
database log), but for this feature to be generally useful for the real
world we'll need to support arbitrary user memory.
