To me, this part is kind of a hack, since it just skips checking
granularity for the largest pending list.
It might not work for conventional devices. The fundamental problem is
the current pend_list doesn't
work with zoned devices now. So, I think we need a new design covering
zoned devices for discard
such as using another discard pending list for zoned devices and
controlling it in a different way.
Thanks for letting me know about this issue. I will come up with a new
discard design for zoned devices.
