dm thin: support discard with non power of two block size
Support discards when the pool's block size is not a power of 2. The block layer assumes discard_granularity is a power of 2 (in blkdev_issue_discard), so we set this to the largest power of 2 that is a divides into the number of sectors in each block, but never less than DATA_DEV_BLOCK_SIZE_MIN_SECTORS. This patch eliminates the "Discard support must be disabled when the block size is not a power of 2" constraint that was imposed in commit 55f2b8b ("dm thin: support for non power of 2 pool blocksize"). That commit was incomplete: using a block size that is not a power of 2 shouldn't mean disabling discard support on the device completely.
