Could you change that to "zone_lock" to be consistent with the other zone
related field names which all spell out "zone" ?

The cb() here may sleep etc. So you cannot have the zone lock around it. Taking
the lock around the memcpy only is enough.

Please call that valid_len or something more representative of the value.

I think you can avoid all of these changes by taking the lock around the calls
to null_zone_mgmt() and null_zone_write() in null_process_zoned_cmd(). That will
make the patch a lot smaller and simplify maintenance. And even, I think that
taking the lock on entry to null_process_zoned_cmd() and unlocking on return
should even be simpler since that would cover reads too (valid read len). Only
report zones would need special treatment.

I think we also need this to have a Cc: stable and a "Fixes" tag too.
