Comment (by kallisti5):
High level: NVMe is a alternate attachment of SSD devices directly to the
PCIe bus. NVMe devices use a "lightweight" communication protocol which is
used instead of AHCI.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NVM_Express
NVMe essentially replaces AHCI for SSD devices. We likely need to get
more information on NVMe and see if AHCI can be used until native NVMe
support is created.
Since i'm pretty sure AHCI is still available on NVMe devices, i'm
dropping the priority of this ticket for now. If the AHCI emulation ever
goes away (or isn't available 100% of the time) we should bump up the
priority of this one.
