Add a helper to query the number of sectors support per each discard bio based on the block device and use this helper to stop various places from poking into the request_queue to see if discard is supported and if so how much. This mirrors what is done e.g. for write zeroes as well. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Martin K.

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.
