The zeroinit filter is used for cloning/mirroring and importing with
target volumes that are known to produce zeros when reading parts that
were not written before and can be helpful for performance.
Since it is the target of the mirror, it won't have a 'throttle' node
associated with it, but be added as a top node itself. Therefore, it
requires an explicit node-name.
