RFCs should be posted to help review and evaluate direct NPO2 support
(not emulation) given we have no vendor willing to take a position that
NPO2 will *never* be supported on ZNS, and its not clear yet how many
vendors other than Samsung actually require NPO2 support. The other
reason is existing NPO2 customers currently cake in hacks to Linux to
supoport NPO2 support, and so a fragmentation already exists. To help
address this it's best to evaluate what the world of NPO2 support would
look like and put the effort to do the work for that and review that.
