block: use normal I/O path for discard requests

prepare_discard_fn() was being called in a place where memory allocation
was effectively impossible.  This makes it inappropriate for all but
the most trivial translations of Linux's DISCARD operation to the block
command set.  Additionally adding a payload there makes the ownership
of the bio backing unclear as it's now allocated by the device driver
and not the submitter as usual.

It is replaced with QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD which is used to indicate whether
the queue supports discard operations or not.  blkdev_issue_discard now
allocates a one-page, sector-length payload which is the right thing
for the common ATA and SCSI implementations.

The mtd implementation of prepare_discard_fn() is replaced with simply
checking for the request being a discard.

Largely based on a previous patch from Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx>
which did the prepare_discard_fn but not the different payload allocation
yet.
