virtblk_revalidate_zones is called unconditionally from
virtblk_config_changed_work from the virtio config_changed callback.
virtblk_revalidate_zones is a bit odd in that it re-clears the zoned
state for host aware or non-zoned devices, which isn't needed unless the
zoned mode changed - but a zone mode change to a host managed model isn't
handled at all, and virtio_blk also doesn't handle any other config
change except for a capacity change is handled (and even if it was
the upper layers above virtio_blk wouldn't handle it very well).
But even the useful case of a size change that would add or remove
zones isn't handled properly as blk_revalidate_disk_zones expects the
device capacity to cover all zones, but the capacity is only updated
after virtblk_revalidate_zones.
As this code appears to be entirely untested and is getting in the way
remove it for now, but it can be readded in a fixed version with
proper test coverage if needed.

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.
