Secure erase is a very different operation from discard in that it is
a data integrity operation vs hint.  Fully split the limits and helper
infrastructure to make the separation more clear.

Just use a non-zero max_discard_sectors as an indicator for discard
support, similar to what is done for write zeroes.

The only places where needs special attention is the RAID5 driver,
which must clear discard support for security reasons by default,
even if the default stacking rules would allow for it.

<title>dm: simplify dm_sumbit_bio_remap interface</title>

Remove the from_wq argument from dm_sumbit_bio_remap(). Eliminates the
need for dm_sumbit_bio_remap() callers to know whether they are
calling for a workqueue or from the original dm_submit_bio().

Add map_task to dm_io struct, record the map_task in alloc_io and
clear it after all target -&gt;map() calls have completed. Update
dm_sumbit_bio_remap to check if 'current' matches io-&gt;map_task rather
than rely on passed 'from_rq' argument.

This change really simplifies the chore of porting each DM target to
using dm_sumbit_bio_remap() because there is no longer the risk of
programming error by not completely knowing all the different contexts
a particular method that calls dm_sumbit_bio_remap() might be used in.

Pass the block_device and operation that we plan to use this bio for to
bio_alloc to optimize the assignment.  NULL/0 can be passed, both for the
passthrough case on a raw request_queue and to temporarily avoid
refactoring some nasty code.

Also move the gfp_mask argument after the nr_vecs argument for a much
more logical calling convention matching what most of the kernel does.
