The patch actually introduces bdev_is_zone_aligned(). I agree with Bart
that bdev_is_zone_start() is a better name.

s/based logic/arithmetics

And so what ? What is the point here ?

Please spell things out clearly: ...allow zoned devices with a zone size
that is not a power of 2 number of sectors...

zcap, zsze are nvme field names. Please phrase these in plain english to
clarify.

"moved earlier" -> declared earlier in xxx.h ?

You removed the zone size value print, so please update the message to
something like:

pr_warn("%s: Invalid zero zone size", disk->disk_name);

As Bart suggested, please print the zone capacity and zone size values.

args->nr_zones = disk_zone_no(disk, capacity);

This is checked in bdev_offset_from_zone_start(). No need to add it again
here.

This one is not used when CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is not set. No need to
define it.
