Do we really need bdrv_discard and bdrv_aio_discard in the backends? I
think it makes sense to have a bdrv_aio_discard() in block.h as AIO
generally fits well for device models, but I would just require
bdrv_co_discard for any block drivers implementing discard.

As discussed on IRC: Yes, it just must make sure to take s->lock.
