Commit 16d7fd3cfa ("zonefs: use iomap for synchronous direct writes")
changes zonefs code from a self-built zone append BIO to using iomap for
synchronous direct writes. This change relies on iomap submit BIO
callback to change the write BIO built by iomap to a zone append BIO.
However, this change overlooked the fact that a write BIO may be very
large as it is split when issued. The change from a regular write to a
zone append operation for the built BIO can result in a block layer
warning as zone append BIO are not allowed to be split.

This error depends on the hardware used, specifically on the max zone
append bytes and max_[hw_]sectors limits. Tests using AMD Epyc machines
that have low limits did not reveal this issue while runs on Intel Xeon
machines with larger limits trigger it.
Manually splitting the zone append BIO using bio_split_rw() can solve
this issue but also requires issuing the fragment BIOs synchronously
with submit_bio_wait(), to avoid potential reordering of the zone append
BIO fragments, which would lead to data corruption. That is, this
solution is not better than using regular write BIOs which are subject
to serialization using zone write locking at the IO scheduler level.
Given this, fix the issue by removing zone append support and using
regular write BIOs for synchronous direct writes. This allows preseving
the use of iomap and having identical synchronous and asynchronous
sequential file write path. Zone append support will be reintroduced
later through io_uring commands to ensure that the needed special
handling is done correctly.
