The commit 92986f6b4c8a ("dm: use bio_clone_fast in alloc_io/alloc_tio")
removed bio_clone_fast() call from alloc_tio() when ci->io->tio is
available. In this case, ci->bio is not copied to ci->io->tio.clone.
This is fine since init_clone_info() sets same values to ci->bio and
ci->io->tio.clone.
However, when incoming bios have REQ_PREFLUSH flag, __send_empty_flush()
prepares a zero length bio on stack and set it to ci->bio. At this time,
ci->io->tio.clone still keeps non-zero length. When alloc_tio() chooses
this ci->io->tio.clone as the bio to map, it is passed to targets as
non-empty flush bio. It causes bio length check failure in dm-zoned and
unexpected operation such as dm_accept_partial_bio() call.
To avoid the non-empty flush bio, set zero length to ci->io->tio.clone
in __send_empty_flush().

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.
