block: Simplify report zones execution
All kernel users of blkdev_report_zones() as well as applications use through ioctl(BLKZONEREPORT) expect to potentially get less zone descriptors than requested. As such, the use of the internal report zones command execution loop implemented by blk_report_zones() is not necessary and can even be harmful to performance by causing the execution of inefficient small zones report command to service the reminder of a requested zone array. This patch removes blk_report_zones(), simplifying the code. Also remove a now incorrect comment in dm_blk_report_zones().
