On our backend we can do something similar to LIO where we can enable and disable UNMAP support on the fly. In the SCSI/block layer we can detect this by just doing a rescan. However, LIO cannot detect this change because we only check during the initial configuration. This patch allows UNMAP detection to also happen when the user tries to turn it on.

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.
