Sure, but if the NVMe device gets hot-unplugged it means that all the 
CMB mappings are useless and need to be torn down. This probably means 
killing any process that has mappings open.

Yup, that's correct. And yes, I've never suggested this to be a bolt on 
driver -- I always expected for it to get integrated into the nvme 
driver. (iopmem was not meant for this.)
