Subject: [PATCH 5.8 169/255] block: loop: set discard granularity and alignment for block device backed loop

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

commit bcb21c8cc9947286211327d663ace69f07d37a76 upstream.

In case of block device backend, if the backend supports write zeros, the
loop device will set queue flag of QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD. However,
limits.discard_granularity isn't setup, and this way is wrong,
see the following description in Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-block:

	A discard_granularity of 0 means that the device does not support
	discard functionality.

Especially 9b15d109a6b2 ("block: improve discard bio alignment in
__blkdev_issue_discard()") starts to take q->limits.discard_granularity
for computing max discard sectors. And zero discard granularity may cause
kernel oops, or fail discard request even though the loop queue claims
discard support via QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD.

Fix the issue by setup discard granularity and alignment.

Fixes: c52abf563049 ("loop: Better discard support for block devices")
