This can happen if a discard cmd has multiple bios and at least 1 bio is 
already submitted and when submitting other bios, we encounter -EAGAIN.
In this case, this dc will be moved to retry_list and will be moved back
to dcc->pend_list only if the dc->bio_ref becomes 0 within 5 sec timeout.
If it doesn't become zero, then it will be left in retry_list itself, which
will be later removed from retry_list. Before removing from retry_list we 
will however ensure that submitted bio is done i.e., dc->bio_ref is 0, but
dc->error will be -EAGAIN as this dc could not be requeued/retried.

So this is expected, where it only means that this dc could not be
submitted/retried again within timeout. I think we can ignore
this -EAGAIN error in __remove_discard_cmd().
