There are two cases when handle DISCARD merge. If max_discard_segments == 1, the bios/requests need to be contiguous to merge. If max_discard_segments > 1, it takes every bio as a range and different range needn't to be contiguous. But now, attempt_merge screws this up. It always consider contiguity for DISCARD for the case max_discard_segments > 1 and cannot merge contiguous DISCARD for the case max_discard_segments == 1, because rq_attempt_discard_merge always returns false in this case. This patch fixes both of the two cases above.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
