I do not understand the point of this code here to test for the runt
zone. As long as sector is within the device maximum capacity (in 512B
unit), blk_lookup_zone will return the pointer to the zone structure
containing that sector (the RB-tree does not have any constraint
regarding zone size). The only case where NULL would be returned is if
discard is issued super early right after the disk is probed and before
the zone refresh work has completed. We can certainly protect against
that by delaying the discard.

Sector values are usually displayed in decimal. Why use Hex here ? At
least "0x" would be needed to avoid confusion I think.

Some 10TB host managed disks out there have 1% conventional zone space,
that is 100GB of capacity. When issuing a "reset all", doing a write
same in these zones will take forever... If the user really wants zeroes
in those zones, let it issue a zeroout.

I think that it would a better choice to simply not report
discard_zeroes_data as true and do nothing for conventional zones reset.
