null_blk: Fix scheduling in atomic with zoned mode

Commit aa1c09cb65 ("null_blk: Fix locking in zoned mode") changed
zone locking to using the potentially sleeping wait_on_bit_io()
function. This is acceptable when memory backing is enabled as the
device queue is in that case marked as blocking, but this triggers a
scheduling while in atomic context with memory backing disabled.

Fix this by relying solely on the device zone spinlock for zone
information protection without temporarily releasing this lock around
null_process_cmd() execution in null_zone_write(). This is OK to do
since when memory backing is disabled, command processing does not
block and the memory backing lock nullb->lock is unused. This solution
avoids the overhead of having to mark a zoned null_blk device queue as
blocking when memory backing is unused.

This patch also adds comments to the zone locking code to explain the
unusual locking scheme.
