-Subject: loop: Better discard support for block devices
-
-If the backing device for a loop device is itself a block device,
-then mirror the "write zeroes" capabilities of the underlying
-block device into the loop device. Copy this capability into both
-max_write_zeroes_sectors and max_discard_sectors of the loop device.
-
-The reason for this is that REQ_OP_DISCARD on a loop device translates
-into blkdev_issue_zeroout(), rather than blkdev_issue_discard(). This
-presents a consistent interface for loop devices (that discarded data
-is zeroed), regardless of the backing device type of the loop device.
-There should be no behavior change for loop devices backed by regular
-files.
-
-This change fixes blktest block/003, and removes an extraneous
-error print in block/013 when testing on a loop device backed
-by a block device that does not support discard.
