Damien Le Moal f70291411b block: Introduce bio_needs_zone_write_plugging()
In preparation for fixing device mapper zone write handling, introduce
the inline helper function bio_needs_zone_write_plugging() to test if a
BIO requires handling through zone write plugging using the function
blk_zone_plug_bio(). This function returns true for any write
(op_is_write(bio) == true) operation directed at a zoned block device
using zone write plugging, that is, a block device with a disk that has
a zone write plug hash table.

This helper allows simplifying the check on entry to blk_zone_plug_bio()
and used in to protect calls to it for blk-mq devices and DM devices.

Fixes: f211268ed1 ("dm: Use the block layer zone append emulation")

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.
