[PATCH] nvme: configure discard at init time

Currently nvme reconfigures discard for every disk revalidation.  This
is problematic because any O_WRONLY or O_RDWR open will trigger a
partition scan through udev/systemd, and we will reconfigure discard.
This blows away any user settings, like discard_max_bytes.

Configure discard at init time instead.

I'm open to other suggestions as well, currently it sucks that you'd
have to continually re-configure the discard settings when someone opens
the device for writing.
