> zero-rq kills every request that is not a read or a write. Requests
> queued against the previous table and dispatched to zero-rq after a
> table swap therefore fail, a flush with an error returned to the
> syncing task and a discard with an I/O error in the log:
>
> I/O error, dev dm-0, sector 0 op 0x3:(DISCARD) flags 0x4800
>
> ploop reloads a released device to zero-rq precisely to keep the file
> system on it from seeing such errors.
>
> Complete flushes, discards and write zeroes as writes are completed.
> Reads already return zeros, so all of them are honoured. Drop
> num_discard_bios from the constructor: it only matters to bio-based
> targets and to targets that pass discards through to a device, and
> zero-rq is neither, so "silently drop discards" above it never held.
