Thinking more about this one, struct request_queue has nr_zones field, which is
not a queue limit but still exported as a queue attribute. Device mapper
exposing a zoned drive target do set this field manually. So I guess the same
approach is valid for max_open_zones (and max_active_zones). So OK, disregard
this comment.

The other comments I sent below remain though.
