Yes, I know async kernel thread was already introduced, and we can expect such
implementation can help to reduce huge handling latency. But still in checkpoint
we need to check region of invalid block and send the pending discard entries to
kernel thread, so what I concern is that in scenario of there is huge number of
discard messages, we will still face long latency with cp lock held.
