[PATCH] brd: Refuse improperly aligned discard requests

From: Jan Kara
Date: Wed Nov 04 2015 - 11:13:47 EST


Currently when improperly aligned discard request is submitted, we just
silently discard more / less data which results in filesystem corruption
in some cases. Refuse such misaligned requests.
