[PATCH] block: don't check position contiguity for DISCARD in attempt_merge

From: Jianchao Wang
Date: Fri Oct 19 2018 - 05:22:43 EST


Discard command supports multiple ranges of blocks, so needn't
checking position contiguity when merging. Let's do the same thing
in attempt_merge as the blk_try_merge.
