Placing both data and metadata in a block group is impossible in ZONED mode. For data, we can allocate a space for it and write it immediately after the allocation. For metadata, however, we cannot do that, because the logical addresses are recorded in other metadata buffers to build up the trees. As a result, a data buffer can be placed after a metadata buffer, which is not written yet. Writing out the data buffer will break the sequential write rule. Check and disallow MIXED_BG with ZONED mode.

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.
