This does not compile. You missed the init_rcu_head() and destroy_rcu_head()
changes. Adding this:

And it compiles.

Testing this, the rcu hang is now gone.

However, the behavior of the error recovery  is still different from what I
see in 4.15 and 4.14. For my test case, an unaligned write to a sequential
zone on a ZAC drive connected to an AHCI port, the report zone issued during
the disk revalidation after the write error fails with a timeout, which causes
capacity change to 0, port reset and recovery again. Eventually, everything
comes back up OK, but it takes some time.

I am investigating to make sure I am not hitting a device FW bug to confirm if
this is a kernel problem.

Best regards.
