Subject: [PATCH] block: Avoid divide by 0 when max_discard_sectors is 0

The recent commit "block: discard granularity might not be power of 2"
introduced a divide by 0 in the kernel.  Previously the code didn't
try to divide by discard_granularity when max_discard_sectors was 0.

Fix the code to only do the division if max_discard_sectors is
specified.

Error looked like this:

Division by zero in kernel.
