Currently we have a BUG_ON() to make sure the number of sg list does not exceed queue_max_segments() in virtio_queue_rq(). However, the block layer uses queue_max_discard_segments() instead of queue_max_segments() to limit the sg list for discard requests. So the BUG_ON() might be triggered if virtio-blk device reports a larger value for max discard segment than queue_max_segments(). To fix it, let's simply remove the BUG_ON() which has become unnecessary after commit 02746e26c39e("virtio-blk: avoid preallocating big SGL for data"). And the unused vblk->sg_elems can also be removed together.

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.
