[ Upstream commit 2705dfb2094777e405e065105e307074af8965c1 ] ll_new_hw_segment() is reached only in case of single range discard merge, and we don't have max discard segment size limit actually, so it is wrong to run the following check: if (req->nr_phys_segments + nr_phys_segs > blk_rq_get_max_segments(req)) it may be always false since req->nr_phys_segments is initialized as one, and bio's segment count is still 1, blk_rq_get_max_segments(reg) is 1 too. Fix the issue by not doing the check and bypassing the calculation of discard request's nr_phys_segments. Based on analysis from Wang Shanker.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
