Jan Kara d44c9780ed block: Try to handle busy underlying device on discard
commit 56887cffe9 upstream.

Commit 384d87ef2c ("block: Do not discard buffers under a mounted
filesystem") made paths issuing discard or zeroout requests to the
underlying device try to grab block device in exclusive mode. If that
failed we returned EBUSY to userspace. This however caused unexpected
fallout in userspace where e.g. FUSE filesystems issue discard requests
from userspace daemons although the device is open exclusively by the
kernel. Also shrinking of logical volume by LVM issues discard requests
to a device which may be claimed exclusively because there's another LV
on the same PV. So to avoid these userspace regressions, fall back to
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() instead of returning EBUSY to userspace
and return EBUSY only of that call fails as well (meaning that there's
indeed someone using the particular device range we are trying to
discard).

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
