Hey HCH & Jens,
Is this already queued up for v4.13 to address the missing LBPRZ feature
bit..?
If not, I'll happy to take it via target-pending along with the
following to re-enable it via max_write_zeroes_sectors.
diff --git a/drivers/target/target_core_device.c b/drivers/target/target_core_device.c
index d2f089c..e7caf78 100644

+++ b/drivers/target/target_core_device.c

Any objections..?
