Given that zone write plugging manages all writes to zones of a zoned block device and track the write pointer position of all zones, emulating zone append operations using regular writes can be implemented generically, without relying on the underlying device driver to implement such emulation. This is needed for devices that do not natively support the zone append command, e.g. SMR hard-disks.
