For a zoned device, e.g. host managed SMR hard drive, the request op
REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL is to reset LBA of all zones' writer pointers to
the start LBA of the zone they belong to. After all the write pointers
are reset, all previously stored data is invalid and unaccessible.
Therefore this op code changes on-disk data, belongs to WRITE request
op code.

Similar to the problem of REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET, REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET is an
even number 8, it means bios with REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL in bio->bi_opf
will be treated as READ request by op_is_write().

Same problem will happen when bcache device is created on top of zoned
device like host managed SMR hard drive, bcache driver should invalid
all cached data for the REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL request, but this zone
management bio is mistakenly treated as READ request and go into bcache
read code path, which will cause undefined behavior.

This patch changes REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL value from 8 to 15, this new
odd number will make bcache driver handle this zone management bio in
write request code path properly.

The subject title for this patch should mention "REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET_ALL"
instead of "REQ_OP_ZONE_RESET".
