Of the tunables available for the bfq I/O scheduler, the only one
missing from the documentation in 'Documentation/block/bfq-iosched.txt'
is slice_idle_us. Add this tunable to the documentation and a short

If the kernel is built without CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED, a modprobe
of the null_blk driver with zoned=1 fails with 'Invalid argument'.
This can be confusing to users, prompting a search as to why the
parameter is invalid. To assist in that search, add a bit more
information to the failure, additionally adding to the documentation
that CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED is needed for zoned=1.

Added null_blk prefix to error message.

Add the description of the zoned, nr_zones and chunk_sectors sysfs queue
attributes to Documentation/block/queue-sysfs.txt. The description of
the zoned and chunk_sector attributes are mostly copied from
ABI/testing/sysfs-block (added a typo fix). While at it, also fix a
typo in the description of the io_poll_delay attribute.

nr_zones description is also added to ABI/testing/sysfs-block and
contact email address updated for the zoned attribute.
