[PATCH 5.13 057/300] block: return ELEVATOR_DISCARD_MERGE if possible

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 866663b7b52d2da267b28e12eed89ee781b8fed1 ]

When merging one bio to request, if they are discard IO and the queue
supports multi-range discard, we need to return ELEVATOR_DISCARD_MERGE
because both block core and related drivers(nvme, virtio-blk) doesn't
handle mixed discard io merge(traditional IO merge together with
discard merge) well.

Fix the issue by returning ELEVATOR_DISCARD_MERGE in this situation,
so both blk-mq and drivers just need to handle multi-range discard.
