Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ext4: Adjust mineln with discard_granularity in FITRIM code

Discard granularity tells us the minimum size of extent to be discarded.
Use that information to adjust minlen properly in FITRIM code. Smaller
extents will be ignored anyway, so we can optimize by not even trying to
discard them.
