zone->buffer should not be checked whether null as it will never be null
here. I will fix it on next version.
zone->buffer was allocated when the zone was initialized (see line 995).
Pstore/blk will not go on if allocates buffer for zone->buffer failed.

The type of buffer is struct blkz_buffer (see line 98). struct
blkz_buffer is a header of data, who's member data[0] point to real
data. The codes "sizeof(*zone->buffer)" just to get size of header.
There is a size recorder for blkz_buffer->data on struct blkz_zone. It
is no need to write to block device, that's why it do not live in struct
blkz_buffer.
