dm-thin does not free the discard_parent bio after all chained sub
bios finished. The following kmemleak report could be observed after
pool with discard_passdown option processes discard bios in
linux v4.11-rc7. To fix this, we drop the discard_parent bio reference
when its endio (passdown_endio) called.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
