Discard command supports multiple ranges of blocks, so needn't
checking position contiguity when merging. Let's do the same thing
in attempt_merge as the blk_try_merge.

Jianchao,

Discards need to be contiguous unless queue->limits.max_discard_segments
is bigger than 1. So if you remove this I think you need to add a
contiguity check in req_attempt_discard_merge().

Yes.

I will send the V2 version next.
