Instead of QUEUE_FLAG_NO_ZONE_WRITE_LOCK I feel
QUEUE_FLAG_SKIP_ZONE_WRITE_LOCK is better.

Hmm ... this patch series makes it possible to use an UFS storage controller and a zoned UFS device with no I/O scheduler attached. If no I/O scheduler is active, there is no zone write locking to skip so I think that the former name is better.

Thanks,

Bart.
