[dm-devel] [PATCH v3 01/10] dm-table: Introduce DM_TARGET_ZONED_HM feature

From: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal at wdc.com>

The target drivers currently available will not operate correctly if a
table target maps onto a host-managed zoned block device.

To avoid problems, this patch introduces the new feature flag
DM_TARGET_ZONED_HM for a target driver to explicitly state that it
supports host-managed zoned block devices. This feature is checked
in dm_get_device() to prevent the addition to a table of a target
mapping to a host-managed zoned block device if the target type does
not have the feature enabled.

Note that as host-aware zoned block devices are backward compatible
with regular block devices, they can be used by any of the current
target types. This new feature is thus restricted to host-managed
zoned block devices.
