Thanks, that is really awesome! I have been testing with a patched
version of ubdsrv. It's nice to get some more test coverage options.

This is the only place `pdu->nr_sectors` is assigned. We copy the value
to `iod->nr_sectors` when we process the request. So I think that part
is OK.

However, it should be set to `zones_in_request`, not `remaining_zones`.
Otherwise user space might try to write too much to the buffer and get
confused when the write fails.
