sd_zbc: Fix report zones buffer allocation

commit b091ac616846a1da75b1f2566b41255ce7f0e0a6 upstream.

During disk scan and revalidation done with sd_revalidate(), the zones
of a zoned disk are checked using the helper function
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() if a configuration change is detected
(change in the number of zones or zone size). The function
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() issues report_zones calls that are very
large, that is, to obtain zone information for all zones of the disk
with a single command. The size of the report zones command buffer
necessary for such large request generally is lower than the disk
max_hw_sectors and KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE (4MB) and succeeds on boot (no
memory fragmentation), but often fail at run time (e.g. hot-plug
event). This causes the disk revalidation to fail and the disk
capacity to be changed to 0.

This problem can be avoided by using vmalloc() instead of kmalloc() for
the buffer allocation. To limit the amount of memory to be allocated,
this patch also introduces the arbitrary SD_ZBC_REPORT_MAX_ZONES
maximum number of zones to report with a single report zones command.
This limit may be lowered further to satisfy the disk max_hw_sectors
limit. Finally, to ensure that the vmalloc-ed buffer can always be
mapped in a request, the buffer size is further limited to at most
queue_max_segments() pages, allowing successful mapping of the buffer
even in the worst case scenario where none of the buffer pages are
contiguous.
