Sure, building it at the moment, and will give it a try. Also please see my

I had to adjust this against v5.13 because there's no mq-deadline-main.c, only
mq-deadline.c (due to Bart series, I assume). I hope this is fine as the patch
applies cleanly.

Do I understand correctly that this will be something like:

Fixes: 2705dfb209 ("block: fix discard request merge")

?

Because as the bisection progresses, I've bumped into this commit only.
Without it the issue is not reproducible, at least so far.

Thanks!
