Add tracking of REQ_DISCARD ios to the partition statistics and append
them to the various stat files in /sys as well as /proc/diskstats.
These are tracked with the same four stats as reads and writes:
Number of discard ios completed.
Number of discard ios merged
Number of discard sectors completed
Milliseconds spent on discard requests
This is done via adding a new STAT_DISCARD define to genhd.h and then
using it to index that stat field for discard requests.

On 2.4 you might execute "grep 'hda ' /proc/partitions". On 2.6, you have
a choice of "cat /sys/block/hda/stat" or "grep 'hda ' /proc/diskstats".
The advantage of one over the other is that the sysfs choice works well
