The above error paths need to unwind the references or any other
resources acquired before failing.  Please see other targets for how
they handle sequencing of the needed operations (e.g. dm_put_device)
in the error path by using gotos, etc.

Are you certain you shouldn't at least be exposing a different
logical_block_size to upper layers?

Wouldn't it be worthwhile to expose the zone sectors (native npo2 vs
simulated po2?) You merely roundup but never expose what you're using
(unless I'm missing something about generic "zoned" device
capabilities).
