This is a preparation patch to implement zone emulation on a regular device. To emulate a zoned filesystem on a regular (non-zoned) device, we need to decide an emulated zone size. Instead of making it a compile-time static value, we'll make it configurable at mkfs time. Since we have one zone == one device extent restriction, we can determine the emulated zone size from the size of a device extent. We can extend btrfs_get_dev_zone_info() to show a regular device filled with conventional zones once the zone size is decided. The current call site of btrfs_get_dev_zone_info() during the mount process is earlier than loading the file system trees so that we don't know the size of a device extent at this point. Thus we can't slice a regular device to conventional zones. This patch introduces btrfs_get_dev_zone_info_all_devices to load the zone info for all the devices. And, it places this function in open_ctree() after loading the trees.

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.
