Ok, I hadn't found the fuse server thread - that should be fine.

What I'm wondering is how read/write requests are handled. Are the data
payloads going in the same ringbuffer as the commands? That could work,
if the ringbuffer is appropriately sized, but alignment is a an issue.

We just looked up the device DMA requirements and with modern NVME only
4 byte alignment is required, but the block layer likely isn't set up to
handle that.

So - prearranged buffer? Or are you using splice to get pages that
userspace has read into into the kernel pagecache?
