Title:
  Revert "If zone is so small that watermarks are the same, stop zone
  balance" in yakkety

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Yakkety:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  Impact: This patch was errantly deemed appropriate for yakkety but is
  not. Returning early might avoid side effects in zone_balanced() that
  could change behavior.

  Fix: Revert the patch.

  Regression potential: This reverts us back to matching upstream, so no
  regressions are expected.
