Weird, this should not fail. zonefs-tests.sh creates a regular nullb device to
test that mkzonefs rejects regular disks. What was the failure here ?

>   Test 0013:  mkzonefs (super block zone state)                    ... FAIL

Same, this should not fail: this checks that if the super block is in a
sequential zone, that zone must be in the full condition. And seeing that all
conventional tests are skipped, it looks like your nullb drive does not have any
conventional zones. What was the error here ?
