[dm-devel] [PATCH v2] dm table: simplify discard support processing

Remove 'discards_supported' from the dm_table structure.  The same
information can be easily discovered from the table's target(s) in
dm_table_supports_discards().

Also DMWARN if a target sets 'discards_supported' override but forgets
to set 'num_discard_requests'.

v2: have dm_table_supports_discards() keep checking table's targets if
    !ti->num_discard_requests
