As mentioned in patch 1, we should keep the default for the syswrite
case. We can mention that if the more efficient zeroing operation is
supported, then the default throughput is unlimited.

And as discussed off-list: currently we do not look at the throughput at
all when BLKZEROOUT is supported. People might be surprised if they have
a (left-over) throughput limit configured which suddenly gets applied
after we roll out this series. But it can also be considered a bug that
it wasn't applied. What we should do is adding a log message that the
limit gets applied so that people notice. And adding a recommendation to
the docs that if BLKZEROOUT is supported, then removing the limit is
recommended (and how to check for support).
