A zoned filesystem currently has a superblock at the beginning of the superblock logging zones if the zones are conventional. This difference in superblock position causes a chicken-and-egg problem for filesystems with emulated zones. Since the device is a regular (non-zoned) device, we cannot know if the filesystem is regular or zoned while reading the superblock. But, to load the superblock, we need to see if it is emulated zoned or not. Place the superblocks at the same location as they are on regular filesystem on regular devices to solve the problem. It is possible because it's ensured that all the superblock locations are at an (emulated) conventional zone on regular devices.

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.
