Subject: [PATCH v2] ext4: fix to report fstrim.minlen back to userspace

Quoted from manual of fstrim(8):

"-m, --minimum minimum-size
	..., if it's smaller than the device's minimum, and report that
(fstrim_range.minlen) back to userspace."

So this patch tries to report adjusted fstrim_range.minlen back to
userspace via FITRIM interface, if the value is smaller than device's
minimum discard granularity.
