		write_same_max_bytes is 0, write same is not supported

What:		/sys/block/<disk>/queue/write_zeroes_max_bytes
Date:		November 2016
Contact:	Chaitanya Kulkarni <chaitanya.kulkarni@wdc.com>
Description:
		Devices that support write zeroes operation in which a
		single request can be issued to zero out the range of
		contiguous blocks on storage without having any payload
		in the request. This can be used to optimize writing zeroes
		to the devices. write_zeroes_max_bytes indicates how many
		bytes can be written in a single write zeroes command. If
		write_zeroes_max_bytes is 0, write zeroes is not supported
		by the device.

What:		/sys/block/<disk>/queue/zoned
Date:		September 2016
Contact:	Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@hgst.com>
Description:
		zoned indicates if the device is a zoned block device
		and the zone model of the device if it is indeed zoned.
		The possible values indicated by zoned are "none" for
		regular block devices and "host-aware" or "host-managed"
		for zoned block devices. The characteristics of
		host-aware and host-managed zoned block devices are
		described in the ZBC (Zoned Block Commands) and ZAC
		(Zoned Device ATA Command Set) standards. These standards
		also define the "drive-managed" zone model. However,
		since drive-managed zoned block devices do not support
		zone commands, they will be treated as regular block
		devices and zoned will report "none".

What:		/sys/block/<disk>/queue/chunk_sectors
Date:		September 2016
Contact:	Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com>
Description:
		chunk_sectors has different meaning depending on the type
		of the disk. For a RAID device (dm-raid), chunk_sectors
		indicates the size in 512B sectors of the RAID volume
		stripe segment. For a zoned block device, either
		host-aware or host-managed, chunk_sectors indicates the
		size of 512B sectors of the zones of the device, with
		the eventual exception of the last zone of the device
		which may be smaller.
