From: Aravind Ramesh <aravind.ramesh@xxxxxxx> Based on the flag enable_check_swd, which is false by default, fio does not initialize the swd value at startup, initializing the swd value to be zero, even if some zones have sectors with data. This can result in fio reflecting less than actual swd after a few writes are completed. In workloads where verify is enabled, fio resets all the zones and while resetting, it decrements the swd counter with the actual number of swds in that zone(swd-count - swd-in-zone), since swd-count is initialized to 0, it results in overflow of the variable causing unpredictable issues. So, initialize the swd to the correct value.
