dm-zoned requires several zones for metadata and chunk bitmaps,
so it cannot expose the entire capacity as the device size.
Originally the code would check for the capacity being equal to
the device size, which is arguably wrong.
So relax this check and increase the interface version number
to signal to userspace that it can set a smaller device size.
