How about doing all this calculation only when it is applicable i.e.
only for reset-zone case, and not for other cases (open/close/finish
zone).

Also apart from "out of range" (which is covered here), there are few
more cases when blkdev_zone_mgmt() may fail it (not covered here).
Perhaps the whole pre and post truncate part can fit better inside
blkdev_zone_mgmt itself.
