is that current SRU for bug 1562344?

This isn't really wishlist, this is needed to persistently identify NVMe
drives on systems with multiple drives.

I'd like to see this patch get started in trusty-proposed sooner than
later, is it possible to go ahead with this for trusty?  (and can we
also add the workaround patch for bug 1647485?)

Title:
  introduce disk/by-id (model_serial) symlinks for NVMe drives

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in systemd source package in Trusty:
  In Progress
Status in systemd source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in systemd source package in Yakkety:
  Fix Committed
Status in systemd source package in Zesty:

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  NVMe drives can't be identified/accessed via /dev/disk/by-id/nvme-
  SERIAL symlinks.

  [Test Case]

  On a system with an NVMe drive, check the /dev/disk/by-id/ directory;
  with the patch, it will contain link(s) named by the drive serial
  number. This should be the *only* change in `ls -l /dev/disk/*/*`.

  On a system without NVMe, verify that `ls -l /dev/disk/*/*` is
  identical (aside from dates, of course) before and after the upgrade
  to the -proposed version.

  [Regression Potential]

  Errors in udev rules can lead to an unbootable or otherwise completely
  broken system if they unintentionally break or  clobber existing
  /dev/disks/ symlinks.

  [Other Info]

  This patch is already included upstream and in zesty systemd.
