RBD devices are currently incorrectly initialised with the block queue
discard_alignment set to the underlying RADOS object size.

As per Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-block:
  The discard_alignment parameter indicates how many bytes the beginning
  of the partition is offset from the internal allocation unit's natural
  alignment.

Correcting the discard_alignment parameter from the RADOS object size to
zero has no effect on how discard requests are propagated through the
block layer - @alignment in __blkdev_issue_discard() remains zero.
However, it does fix the UNMAP granularity alignment value advertised
to SCSI initiators via the Block Limits VPD.
