In preparation to further changes extract a helper function out of
blk_ioctl_discard() that validates if it's allowed to do a write-like
operation for the given range.

This isn't about a write, it is about a discard.

It's used for other commands in the series, all of them are
semantically "writes", or modifying data operations if that's
better. How would you call it? Some blk_modify_validate_args,
maybe?
