nit: perhaps replace "shall be the same" with "has to be the same"

This check looks a bit weird.
What if the first job specifies a f->file_offset and an f->io_size that is
within the same zone? Then f->min_zone and f->max_zone will have the same value.

Which should cause wp_write_min_zone and wp_write_max_zone to have the same
value.

The check will thus not be performed for the second job, after wp_write_min_zone
and wp_write_min_zone have been initialized.
