block: Enhance blk_revalidate_disk_zones()
For ZBC and ZAC zoned devices, the scsi driver revalidation processing implemented by sd_revalidate_disk() includes a call to sd_zbc_read_zones() which executes a full disk zone report used to check that all zones of the disk are the same size. This processing is followed by a call to blk_revalidate_disk_zones(), used to initialize the device request queue zone bitmaps (zone type and zone write lock bitmaps). To do so, blk_revalidate_disk_zones() also executes a full device zone report to obtain zone types. As a result, the entire zoned block device revalidation process includes two full device zone report. By moving the zone size checks into blk_revalidate_disk_zones(), this process can be optimized to a single full device zone report, leading to shorter device scan and revalidation times. This patch implements this optimization, reducing the original full device zone report implemented in sd_zbc_check_zones() to a single, small, report zones command execution to obtain the size of the first zone of the device. Checks whether all zones of the device are the same size as the first zone size are moved to the generic blk_check_zone() function called from blk_revalidate_disk_zones(). This optimization also has the following benefits: 1) fewer memory allocations in the scsi layer during disk revalidation as the potentailly large buffer for zone report execution is not needed. 2) Implement zone checks in a generic manner, reducing the burden on device driver which only need to obtain the zone size and check that this size is a power of 2 number of LBAs. Any new type of zoned block device will benefit from this.
