Initial thoughts on this, I see the appeal to having a generic NVMe
discard setup, but I liked the existing implementation not needing a
special case for discard check on every IO in the completion handler.
Allocating a page for just 16 bytes of data seems a bit wasteful even
if it is short-lived. When it was allocating 256b from the DMA pool,
the smaller amount of additional data seemed worth it for not creating
a conditional completion.
