Yes, zonefs does not use bvec iter. But while enabling io-uring path for
zone-append, I hit into this condition returning -EINVAL.

Reference (from user zone-append series cover letter):
"Append using io_uring fixed-buffer --->
This is flagged as not-supported at the moment. Reason being, for fixed-buffer
io-uring sends iov_iter of bvec type. But current append-infra in block-layer
does not support such iov_iter."

And zone-append doesn't have a problem in using bvec iter as well, so
thought that this may make infra more complete/future-proof?
