null_blk: remove duplicate check for report zone

This patch removes the check in the null_blk_zoned for report zone
command, where it checks for the dev-,>zoned before executing the report
zone.

The null_zone_report() function is a block_device operation callback
which is initialized in the null_blk_main.c and gets called as a part
of blkdev for report zone IOCTL (BLKREPORTZONE).

blkdev_ioctl()
blkdev_report_zones_ioctl()
        blkdev_report_zones()
                blk_report_zones()
                        disk->fops->report_zones()
                                nullb_zone_report();

The null_zone_report() will never get executed on the non-zoned block
device, in the non zoned block device blk_queue_is_zoned() will always
be false which is first check the blkdev_report_zones_ioctl()
before actual low level driver report zone callback is executed.

Here is the detailed scenario:-

1. modprobe null_blk
null_init
null_alloc_dev
        dev->zoned = 0
null_add_dev
        dev->zoned == 0
                so we don't set the q->limits.zoned = BLK_ZONED_HR

2. blkzone report /dev/nullb0

blkdev_ioctl()
blkdev_report_zones_ioctl()
        blk_queue_is_zoned()
                blk_queue_is_zoned
                        q->limits.zoned == 0
                        return false
        if (!blk_queue_is_zoned(q)) <--- true
                return -ENOTTY;
