For write operations issued to a null_blk device with zoned mode enabled, the state and write pointer position of the zone targeted by the command should be checked before badblocks and memory backing are handled as the write may be first failed due to, for instance, a sector position not aligned with the zone write pointer. This order of checking for errors reflects more accuratly the behavior of physical zoned devices. Furthermore, the write pointer position of the target zone should be incremented only and only if no errors are reported by badblocks and memory backing handling. To fix this, introduce the small helper function null_process_cmd() which execute null_handle_badblocks() and null_handle_memory_backed() and use this function in null_zone_write() to correctly handle write requests to zoned null devices depending on the type and state of the write target zone. Also call this function in null_handle_zoned() to process read requests to zoned null devices. null_process_cmd() is called directly from null_handle_cmd() for regular null devices, resulting in no functional change for these type of devices. To have symmetric names, the function null_handle_zoned() is renamed to null_process_zoned_cmd().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
