    md/md0: optimize raid0 discard handling · 29efc390

    There are complaints that raid0 discard handling is slow. Currently we
    divide discard request into chunks and dispatch to underlayer disks. The
    block layer will do merge to form big requests. This causes a lot of
    request split/merge and uses significant CPU time.
    
    A simple idea is to calculate the range for each raid disk for an IO
    request and send a discard request to raid disks, which will avoid the
    split/merge completely. Previously Coly tried the approach, but the
    implementation was too complex because of raid0 zones. This patch always
    split bio in zone boundary and handle bio within one zone. It simplifies
    the implementation a lot.
