I'd be fine with that (using a shared helper), but let's please just
make it:

static inline bool op_is_zoned_write(bdev, op)
{
	 if (!bdev_is_zoned(bio->bi_bdev))
		return false;

	return op == REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES || op == REQ_OP_WRITE;
}

and avoid a switch for this basic case and name it a bit more logically
too. Not married to the above name, but the helper should not imply
anything about zone locking. That's for the caller.
