Which scenario do we need to see ro or offline zones? Can we expect some
when mounting the filesystem? Or, does setting a zone to readonly happen
in runtime? If we detect them at mount time like former one, we need to
treat the discarded blocks in the zone with unusable space, and set
allocation bits to avoid GC.
