But head also has connotations in the SAN world.  Maybe nvme_ns_chain?

I know that's why I didn't really like it all too much in the first place as
well. For nvme_ns_chain, it's not a chain really (the list itself is a chain,
the structure really is the list head...), but I suck at naming things so.

Well, it _is_ the structure for the namespace, and that's the fundamental
problem here given that we use that name for something else at the
moment.

We could hav nvme_namespace and nvme_ns, but I'm not sure that this
helps clarity..
