hey josef,

i finally took a quick look at your target.  has this target proven
useful to you (or others) since you posted?  would you still like to see
this land upstream?

i see no need to stack discard limits if discards are supported by the
underlying device (you'll get that for free via blk_stack_limits).

here is a patch that applies ontop of your original submission.  mostly
whitespace (i'm not pedantic about 80 char limit, etc).  but i did
include some small improvements and FIXMEs/questions in the patch:
