The NVMe Zoned Namespace Command Set adds support for associating
data to a zone through the Zone Descriptor Extension feature.

The Zone Descriptor Extension size is fixed to a multiple of 64
bytes. A value of zero communicates the feature is not available.
A value larger than zero communites the feature is available, and
the specified Zone Descriptor Extension size in bytes.

The Zone Descriptor Extension feature is only available in the NVMe
Zoned Namespaces Command Set. Devices that supports ZAC/ZBC
therefore reports this value as zero, where as the NVMe device
driver reports the Zone Descriptor Extension size from the specific
device.

Which tree is this patch based on ? Not I have seen any patch
introducing max active zones.
The cover letter forgot to mention this patch series' dependencies.
I assume that it is based on the following patch series:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20200622162530.1287650-1-
kbusch@kernel.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20200616102546.491961-1-

Very true. Thanks, Niklas.

I'll rebase this work when the above patchsets have been picked up.
Kind regards,
Niklas
