The bio describing discard operation is allocated by
__blkdev_issue_discard() which returns us a reference to it. That
reference is never released and thus we leak this bio. Drop the bio
reference once it completes in xlog_discard_endio().

Note, this is untested. It's just something I've noticed when looking at the
code.
