One important difference between SCSI Persistent Reservations
and NVMe Reservations is that NVMe reservation keys always apply
to all controllers used by a host (as indicated by the NVMe Host
- Identifier) This behavior is similar to setting the ALL_TG_PT bit
- when registering a SCSI Reservation key, but actually guaranteed
- to work reliably.

Registering a reservation key with a namespace creates an
association between a host and a namespace. A host that is a
registrant of a namespace may use any controller with which that
