The NVMe specification does not require discarded blocks return zeroes on
read, but provides that behavior as a possibility. Some applications more
efficiently use an SSD if reads on discarded blocks were deterministically
zero, based on the "discard_zeroes_data" queue attribute.
There is no specification defined way to determine device behavior on
discarded blocks, so the driver always left the queue setting disabled. We
can only know behavior based on individual device models, so this patch
adds a flag to the NVMe "quirk" list that vendors may set if they know
their controller works that way. The patch also sets the new flag for one
such known device.

NAND MLC memories have both lower and upper pages. When programming,
both of these must be written, before data can be read. However,
these lower and upper pages might not placed at even and odd flash
pages, but can be skipped. Therefore each flash memory has its lower
pages defined, which can then be used when programming and to know when
padding are necessary.
This patch implements the lower page definition in the specification,

To implement sync I/O support within the LightNVM core, the end_io

testing for initialized media manager, followed by calling its end_io

Sync I/O can then be implemented using a callback that signal I/O
completion. This is similar to the logic found in blk_to_execute_io().
By implementing it this way, the underlying device I/Os submission logic

This patch fixes a lost request discovered during IO + hot removal.
The driver's pci removal deletes gendisks prior to shutting down the
controller to allow dirty data to sync. Dirty data can not be synced on
a surprise removal, though, and would potentially block indefinitely.
The driver previously had marked the queue as dying in this scenario
to prevent new requests from attempting, however it will still block
for requests that already entered the queue. This patch fixes this by
quiescing IO first, then aborting the requeued requests before deleting
disks.
