Currently used fork of nvme-cli (nvme-cli v1.8 with our patch)
doesn't work well with namespace manage feature (e.g. namespace
deletion or working with NSID=0xffffffff). These problems seems
to be fixed in later versions of nvme-cli (v1.11.1 for now).
Nvme-cli tool must be patched to support namespace devices
exposed as character devices. Required modification is
already merged with current nvme-cli master in
commit: e770466615096a6d41f038a28819b00bc3078e1d
and hopefully will be available in the next release of nvme-cli
(>1.11.1).
Next steps would be:
1) Change the commit hash to a release that includes mentioned
patch.
2) Drop the compilation when system repos contain the right
release.
