max_discard_sectors is split into a hardware and a tunable value, but blk_queue_max_discard_sectors sets both unconditionally, thus dropping any user stored value on a rescan. Fix blk_queue_max_discard_sectors to only set max_discard_sectors if it either wasn't set, or the new hardware limit is smaller than the previous user limit.
