I have the same objection as in case of ext3. Here is a copy-paste:
Well, I just realized that what are we doing is not exactly what will
user expect. User does not really care where the first data block is.
What the user will expect is, to trim let's say first one gigabyte
of his filesystem, not gigabyte - first data block.
So what I suggest is to always add first_data_block to
fstrim_range.start and do all the necessary checks for overflow. If no
one has any objections I'll put it to the patch.
Thanks!
