[PATCH 0/4] Zone write plugging fixes

[Damien Le Moal <dlemoal@kernel.org>]

Jens,

These patches address potential issues with zone write plugging.
The first 2 patches fix handling of REQ_NOWAIT BIOs as these can be
"failed" after going through the zone write plugging and changing the
target zone plug zone write pointer offset.

Patch 3 is a bigger fix and address a potential deadlock issue due to
the zone write plugging internally issuing zone report operations to
recover from write errors. This zone report operation is removed by this
patch and replaced with an automatic recovery when the BIO issuer
execute a zone report. This change in behavior results in a problem with
REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES handling and failures in the dm-zoned device mapper.
That is fixed in patch 4.

Damien Le Moal (4):
  block: Use a zone write plug BIO work for REQ_NOWAIT BIOs
  block: Ignore REQ_NOWAIT for zone reset and zone finish operations
  block: Prevent potential deadlocks in zone write plug error recovery
  dm: Fix dm-zoned-reclaim zone write pointer alignment
