I provide an example implementation. I put a link in the cover letter, but I think the sentence referring to the link got lost, thanks for pointing out.
https://github.com/metaspace/ubdsrv/commit/7de0d901c329fde7dc5a2e998952dd88bf5e668b
This implementation is based on Ming's ubdsrv code. You do not need to use this one, you can write your own. I am also working on an implementation in Rust, but that is still very early. I think Ming is also writing a Rust library for user space ublk devices.
But currently my patched ubdsrv is the only user space implementation supporting zoned ublk devices (with the loop and null targets).

Thanks!
