[ Upstream commit 445251d0f4d329aa061f323546cd6388a3bb7ab5 ]

I ran into an issue on my laptop that triggered a bug on the
discard path:

print_req_error: I/O error, dev nvme0n1, sector 847167488

Decoding the assembly, the request claims to have 0xffff segments,
while nvme counts two. This turns out to be because we don't check
for a data carrying request on the mq scheduler path, and since
blk_phys_contig_segment() returns true for a non-data request,
we decrement the initial segment count of 0 and end up with
0xffff in the unsigned short.

There are a few issues here:

1) We should initialize the segment count for a discard to 1.
2) The discard merging is currently using the data limits for
segments and sectors.

Fix this up by having attempt_merge() correctly identify the
request, and by initializing the segment count correctly
for discards.

This can only be triggered with mq-deadline on discard capable
devices right now, which isn't a common configuration.
