[Bug 1826737] Re: lshw does not list NVMe storage devices as "disk" nodes ( RedHat Bug 1695343 )

[Yuan-Chen Cheng]

@Stephane, I am open to it.

Here are all class current supported:

    system, bridge, memory, processor, address, storage, disk, tape,
    bus, network, display, input, printer, multimedia, communication,
    power, volume, generic

Per quick check, NVME / SATA controller are belongs to storage class.
Agree NVME is not a 'disk' becuase nothing spins, however it probably
the best place it goes given current on hwNode only have one class.

Maybe https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/memory-storage
/optane-dc-persistent-memory.html is something really harder to decide
whether we should put it in memory or storage.
