rbd: initial discard bits from Guangliang Zhao
This patch add the discard support for rbd driver. There are three types operation in the driver: 1. The objects would be removed if they completely contained within the discard range. 2. The objects would be truncated if they partly contained within the discard range, and align with their boundary. 3. Others would be zeroed. A discard request from blkdev_issue_discard() is defined which REQ_WRITE and REQ_DISCARD both marked and no data, so we must check the REQ_DISCARD first when getting the request type.
