Hi Bean,

I think it is safe to set QUEUE_FLAG_PIPELINE_ZONED_WRITES for any UFS 
logical unit - zoned or not. The changes in the SCSI disk (sd) driver 
are such that the number of retries is only adjusted for zoned logical 
units. Only zoned logical units should report the "UNALIGNED WRITE 
COMMAND" sense code.

As you may have noticed, Damien Le Moal plans to implement a new 
approach - a single queue per zoned logical unit for all write commands.

Thanks,

Bart.
