Hello Ming and Christoph
Issue with Infinibox storage
----------------------------
Really discovered 2 issues here

Kernels 5.15 to 5.18 inclusive recognize the discard support on the
Infinibox device but they fail in the nvme_setup_discard function call

Issue 2
Trying to narrow this down.
5.19 and higher (6.3 included), no longer support discard on the
Infinibox device and log this message so I cannot run the test for the
discard issue

I then bisected between 5.18 and 5.19 to this commit
1a86924e4f464757546d7f7bdc469be237918395 is the first bad commit

nvme: fix interpretation of DMRSL
DMRSLl is in the unit of logical blocks, while max_discard_sectors
is
in the unit of "linux sector".

Note that Infindat mentioned this in our case they logged with us
They say they fully adhere to TP4040 MDTS.
Towards NVMe-oF 2.0 specification, TP4040 - Max Data Transfer for non-
IO Commands (MDTS) was released with additional fields to control these
parameters.
These parameters are supported in kernel versions 5.15 and above. ****
Our storage target will reply with 0 for bit 2 of the ONCS, indicating
UNMAP is supported based on the DMRL, DMRSL, and DMSL values.
(older kernels will interpret these values as UNMAP NOT SUPPORTED)
Let me know your thoughts please. for both issues
