I wonder if bdrv_get_zoned_info() is really needed since zone_model is part of BlockLimits and is already fetched via bdrv_refresh_limits(). Was it introduced because the block limits haven't been or cannot be fetched when zone_model is queried the first time? It would be nice to get rid of bdrv_get_zoned_info() if possible.
