The latter looks unexpected, but is is becase qemu is not passing through
the qemu physical_block_size attribute to any of the nvme settings Linux
interprets as such for NVMe (NVMe doesn't actually have the concept of
a physical block size, unlike SCSI/ATA):

root@testvm:~# nvme id-ns -H /dev/nvme0n1 | grep npw
npwg    : 0
npwa    : 0
root@testvm:~# nvme id-ns -H /dev/nvme0n1 | grep naw
nawun   : 0
nawupf  : 0
root@testvm:~# nvme id-ctrl -H /dev/nvme0 | grep awupf
awupf     : 0

but as said multiple times, that should not really matter - the logical
block size is the granularity of I/O, the physical block size is just
a performance hint.
