There are actually two kinds of discard merge:
- one is the normal discard merge, just like normal read/write request,
and call it single-range discard
- another is the multi-range discard, queue_max_discard_segments(rq->q) > 1
For the former case, queue_max_discard_segments(rq->q) is 1, and we
should handle this kind of discard merge like the normal read/write
request.
This patch fixes the following kernel panic issue[1], which is caused by
not removing the single-range discard request from elevator queue.
Guangwu has one raid discard test case, in which this issue is a bit
easier to trigger, and I verified that this patch can fix the kernel
panic issue in Guangwu's test case.
