null_handle_discard() is called from both null_handle_rq() and null_handle_bio(). As these functions are only passed a nullb_cmd structure, this forces pointer dereferences to identiify the discard operation code and to access the sector range to be discarded. Simplify all this by changing the interface of the functions null_handle_discard() and null_handle_memory_backed() to pass along the operation code, operation start sector and number of sectors. With this change null_handle_discard() can be called directly from null_handle_memory_backed(). Also add a message warning that the discard configuration attribute has no effect when memory backing is disabled. No functional change is introduced by this patch.

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.
