If a host were to set a fuse, the target should return an Invalid Field
error. Just to future-proof, rejecting commands with any flags set
(other than SGL, which you handled in patch 1/9) is probably what should
happen, like:

> +u16 nvmet_parse_passthru_io_cmd(struct nvmet_req *req)
> +{

if (req->cmd->common.flags & ~NVME_CMD_SGL_ALL)
return NVME_SC_INVALID_FIELD;

Or maybe we could obviate the need for 1/9 with something like:

req->cmd->common.flags &= ~NVME_CMD_SGL_ALL;
if (req->cmd->common.flags)
return NVME_SC_INVALID_FIELD;
