WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
This seems to be the same thing for NVMe. eg Samsung, SK Hynix, Micron, Kingston, ADATA, Intel drives:

Not quite as easy to read and understand as the ata driver code though. :/
There are further device specific workarounds in other parts of the NVMe driver code too.
eg for specific Toshiba, LiteON, and Kioxia devices:

While this eems to be special handling for Samsung X5 SSD external drives, and also Samsung 970 Evo Plus drives:

Would be good to put some pressure on them to use this.
