There are two cases when handle DISCARD merge. If max_discard_segments == 1, the bios/requests need to be contiguous to merge. If max_discard_segments > 1, it takes every bio as a range and different range needn't to be contiguous. But now, attempt_merge screws this up. It always consider contiguity for DISCARD for the case max_discard_segments > 1 and cannot merge contiguous DISCARD for the case max_discard_segments == 1, because rq_attempt_discard_merge always returns false in this case. This patch fixes both of the two cases above.
