Implement ZBC host-aware device model emulation. The main changes from the host-managed emulation are the device type (TYPE_DISK is used), relaxation of access checks for read and write operations and different handling of a sequential write preferred zone write pointer as mandated by the ZBC r05 specifications. To facilitate the implementation and avoid a lot of "if" statement, the zmodel field is added to the device information and the z_type field to the zone state data structure.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
