[patch]blk: use correct sectors limitation for discard request

From: Shaohua Li
Date: Fri Mar 16 2012 - 03:40:14 EST



Subject: blk: use correct sectors limitation for discard request

max_discard_sectors doesn't equal to max_sectors/max_hw_sectors. Without this,
discard request merge might be ignored.
