[PATCH v2 1/9] block: fix max discard sectors limit

[Namjae Jeon]

As per above discussion, it has been oberved that few drivers are
setting q->limits.max_discard_sectors to more than (UINT_MAX >> 9)

If multiple discard requests get merged, merged discard request's
size exceeds 4GB, there is possibility that merged discard request's
__data_len field may overflow.

This patch fixes this issue.

Also, adding BLK_DEF_MAX_DISCARD_SECTORS macro to use it instead
of UINT_MAX >> 9.
