Dmitry Monakhov 351499a172 block: Invalidate cache on discard v2
It is reasonable drop page cache on discard, otherwise that pages may
be written by writeback second later, so thin provision devices will
not be happy. This seems to be a  security leak in case of secure discard case.

Also add check for queue_discard flag on early stage.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
