If the target is idle, dmz_should_reclaim() keeps returning true, the work is queued again with no delay and the worker spins on the same failing pass. Re-arm the idle poll instead, so that reclaim is retried after DMZ_IDLE_PERIOD. The next patch makes -ENOSPC the expected result when an idle target has random zones but no free sequential zone. Tested on a 7.2.6 kernel as an out-of-tree dm-zoned module, together with the next two patches, on emulated host-managed drives (tcmu-runner ZBC handler) and on three 27 TB host-managed drives used as md RAID5 members.
