block: re-add discard_granularity and alignment checks
In commit b49a087("block: remove split code in blkdev_issue_{discard,write_same}"), discard_granularity and alignment checks were removed. Ideally, with bio late splitting, the upper layers shouldn't need to depend on device's limits. Christoph reported a discard regression on the HGST Ultrastar SN100 NVMe device when mkfs.xfs. We have not found the root cause yet. This patch re-adds discard_granularity and alignment checks by reverting the related changes in commit b49a087. The good thing is now we can remove the 2G discard size cap and just use UINT_MAX to avoid bi_size overflow.
