I hope we can keep this functionality and related sysfs interface, the main
concern is that: for 16T size fragmented partition, at most there will be
~sizeof(u32)/2 4K blocks which could be invalid and needed to be discarded.
After removal of in-batch discard, we have to handle billions of discard message
with gc_mutex & cp_rwsem held, which will freeze f2fs for very long time.

So I suggest we just set trim_sections to 512 segments (covers one GB) by
default. How do you think?

Thanks,
