A zoned block device consists of a number of zones. Zones are
eitherconventional and accepting random writes or sequential and
requiringthat writes be issued in LBA order from each zone write
pointerposition. For the write restriction, zoned block devices are
notsuitable for a swap device. Disallow swapon on them.
