zbd_adjust_block() always returns with the zone locked if the i/o is accepted. The corresponding unlock happens in zbd_put_io(). The function description says - * Locking strategy: returns with z->mutex locked if and only if z refers * to a sequential zone and if io_u_accept is returned. z is the zone that * corresponds to io_u->offset at the end of this function. Remove the recently added unlock after zbd_replay_write_order() call. Add a Coverity annotation to mark the absence of unlock as intentional.
