 * The "feature-discard" node contains a boolean indicating whether trim

 * may fail at any time with BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP if it is unsupported by

 *
 * Discard operation is a request for the underlying block device to mark
 * extents to be erased. However, discard does not guarantee that the blocks
 * will be erased from the device - it is just a hint to the device
 * controller that these blocks are no longer in use. What the device
 * controller does with that information is left to the controller.
 * Discard operations are passed with sector_number as the
 * sector index to begin discard operations at and nr_sectors as the number of
 * sectors to be discarded. The specified sectors should be discarded if the
 * underlying block device supports trim (ATA) or unmap (SCSI) operations,
 * or a BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP  should be returned.
 * More information about trim/unmap operations at:
 * http://t13.org/Documents/UploadedDocuments/docs2008/
 *     e07154r6-Data_Set_Management_Proposal_for_ATA-ACS2.doc
 * http://www.seagate.com/staticfiles/support/disc/manuals/
 *     Interface%20manuals/100293068c.pdf
 * The backend can optionally provide three extra XenBus attributes to
 * further optimize the discard functionality:
 * 'discard-aligment' - Devices that support discard functionality may
 * internally allocate space in units that are bigger than the exported
 * logical block size. The discard-alignment parameter indicates how many bytes
 * the beginning of the partition is offset from the internal allocation unit's
 * natural alignment.
 * 'discard-granularity'  - Devices that support discard functionality may
 * internally allocate space using units that are bigger than the logical block
 * size. The discard-granularity parameter indicates the size of the internal
 * allocation unit in bytes if reported by the device. Otherwise the
 * discard-granularity will be set to match the device's physical block size.
 * 'discard-secure' - All copies of the discarded sectors (potentially created
 * by garbage collection) must also be erased.  To use this feature, the flag
 * BLKIF_DISCARD_SECURE must be set in the blkif_request_trim.
