Subject: btrfs: zoned: fail mount if the device does not support zone append
From: Johannes Thumshirn <johannes.thumshirn@xxxxxxx>
commit 1d68128c107a0b8c0c9125cb05d4771ddc438369 upstream.
For zoned btrfs, zone append is mandatory to write to a sequential write
only zone, otherwise parallel writes to the same zone could result in
unaligned write errors.
If a zoned block device does not support zone append (e.g. a dm-crypt
zoned device using a non-NULL IV cypher), fail to mount.
