The problem with a remove is that while we have a generic device remove
attribute, it:

 a) isn't always in the same place relatively to the disk
 b) once removed we have no generic way to add the device back for
    further testing

nvme/032 has basic remove testing for nvme, and I think I can also
wire up my scsi bind/unbind testing for blktests using scsi_debug without
too much effort.  But that still isn't exactly a generic test.
