[Dan Streetman]

Public bug reported:

[Impact]

NVMe drives can't be identified/accessed via /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-SERIAL
symlinks.

[Test Case]

On a system with an NVMe drive, check the /dev/disk/by-id/ directory;
with the patch, it will contain link(s) named by the drive serial
number.

[Regression Potential]

None.
