For zoned devices, write zeroes must be split at the zone boundary
which is represented as chunk_sectors. For other uses like the
internally RAIDed NVMe devices it is probably at least useful.
Enhance get_max_io_size to know about write zeroes and use it in
bio_split_write_zeroes. Also add a comment about the seemingly
nonsensical zero max_write_zeroes limit.

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 reStructuredText 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.
