Allow the creation of conventional zones by adding the zone_nr_conv configuration attribute. This new attribute is used only for zoned devices and indicates the number of conventional zones to create. The default value is 0. Since host-managed zoned block devices must always have at least one sequential zone, if the value of zone_nr_conv is larger than or equal to the total number of zones of the device nr_zones, zone_nr_conv is automatically changed to nr_zones - 1.

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.
