Now answer my previous question, please: why would I ever want to use
host_device instead of zoned_host_device?
Or in other words, why would I ever want to present a zoned host device
to a guest as non-zoned device?

Let's try more specific questions. Say I configure a zoned_host_device
backed by a host device that isn't zoned.
1. Is this configuration accepted?
2. Would a guest work as long as it doesn't touch this device?
3. Would a guest using this device work as long as it uses no zoned
features?
4. What happens when a guest tries to use zoned features?
