Subject: [PATCH 4.4 72/88] block: dont deal with discard limit in blkdev_issue_discard()

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ming Lei <ming.lei@...hat.com>

commit 744889b7cbb56a64f957e65ade7cb65fe3f35714 upstream.

blk_queue_split() does respect this limit via bio splitting, so no
need to do that in blkdev_issue_discard(), then we can align to
normal bio submit(bio_add_page() & submit_bio()).

More importantly, this patch fixes one issue introduced in a22c4d7e34402cc
("block: re-add discard_granularity and alignment checks"), in which
zero discard bio may be generated in case of zero alignment.

Fixes: a22c4d7e34402ccdf3 ("block: re-add discard_granularity and alignment checks")
