[PATCH V6 4/4] block: Limit zone array allocation size

[Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@xxxxxxx>]

Limit the size of the struct blk_zone array used in
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() to avoid memory allocation failures leading
to disk revalidation failure. Also further reduce the likelyhood of
such failures by using kvcalloc() (that is vmalloc()) instead of
allocating contiguous pages with alloc_pages().

Fixes: 515ce6061312 ("scsi: sd_zbc: Fix sd_zbc_report_zones() buffer allocation")
Fixes: e76239a3748c ("block: add a report_zones method")
