I can't find the bdev_is_zone_start() function in this patch?

To make this work bdev_get_queue(), bdev_zone_sectors() and
bdev_is_zoned() are moved earlier without modifications.

Can that change perhaps be isolated into a separate patch?

The bdev_is_zone_start() name seems more clear to me than bdev_is_zone_aligned(). Has there already been a discussion about which name to use for this function?

Given the severity of this error, shouldn't the zone capacity and length be reported in the error message?

Thanks,
