I don't think this is needed currently as a) Jens is working on getting
rid of the legacy path, which leaves us with mq-deadline only and Linus'
patch has:

+	if (blk_queue_is_zoned(q))
+		policy = "mq-deadline";

Which chooses mq-deadline on a zoned device.

So nothing to worry about here now.

All this only given Linus' patch actually gets merged.
