OK, I'm fine with this.

The TP that shall not be named puts stuff in there but I'm OK with the
zoned.cross_read parameter.

Hmm. I tend to disagree since nowhere does the spec define that an error
should be returned if the given ZSLBA does not resolve to a valid zone.

Looking again, the spec is actually clear. It says that it "indicates the
number of zones that match the criteria described in section 4.4.1.1".
And that includes the criteria that it only reports zones that have a
ZSLBA equal to or greater than the given SLBA. So it is sound.
