Subject: [027/165] block: Fix discard topology stacking and reporting

2.6.39-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

From: "Martin K. Petersen" <martin.petersen@...cle.com>

commit a934a00a69e940b126b9bdbf83e630ef5fe43523 upstream.

In some cases we would end up stacking discard_zeroes_data incorrectly.
Fix this by enabling the feature by default for stacking drivers and
clearing it for low-level drivers. Incorporating a device that does not
support dzd will then cause the feature to be disabled in the stacking
driver.

Also ensure that the maximum discard value does not overflow when
exported in sysfs and return 0 in the alignment and dzd fields for
devices that don't support discard.
