xen/blkback: Copy id field when doing BLKIF_DISCARD.
We weren't copying the id field so when we sent the response back to the frontend (especially with a 64-bit host and 32-bit guest), we ended up using a random value. This lead to the frontend crashing as it would try to pass to __blk_end_request_all a NULL 'struct request' (b/c it would use the 'id' to find the proper 'struct request' in its shadow array) and end up crashing: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000e4 IP: [<c0646d4c>] __blk_end_request_all+0xc/0x40 .. snip.. EIP is at __blk_end_request_all+0xc/0x40 .. snip.. [<ed95db72>] blkif_interrupt+0x172/0x330 [xen_blkfront] This fixes the bug by passing in the proper id for the response.
