The libata changes should defintively be a separate one, the sd changes
probably as well.

But I'm uneasy with adding anything like this for now, for one the specs
aren't even anywhere close to done, and second attaching ZBC devices
in general doesn't sound like a very smart idea, we really need a
strategy for the sequential required zones first.
