Thanks for the tip, accelerated my searching in the block merge.

On top of v4.7-rc1 , in order to revert this commit cleanly:

	9082e87 block: remove struct bio_batch

, have to revert these two:

	bbd848e0f block: reinstate early return of -EOPNOTSUPP from blkdev_issue_discard
	38f2525 block: add __blkdev_issue_discard

, then have to revert these two dependances:

202bae5 dm thin: unroll issue_discard() to create longer discard bio chains
3dba53a9 dm thin: use __blkdev_issue_discard for async discard support

With all these five commits reverted, NO memleak happens.

Reverting other four commits while not reverting 9082e87, memleak
happens.

Thanks,
Xiong
