For zoned block devices using zone write plugging, an rcu_barrier() call is needed in disk_free_zone_resources() to synchronize freeing of zone write plugs and the destrution of the mempool used to allocate the plugs. The barrier call does slow down a little teardown of zoned block devices but should not affect teardown of regular block devices or zoned block devices that do not use zone write plugging (e.g. zoned DM devices that do not require zone append emulation). Modify disk_free_zone_resources() to return early if we do not have a mempool to start with, that is, if the device does not use zone write plugging. This avoids the costly rcu_barrier() and speeds up disk teardown.
