Pull io_uring async discard support from Jens Axboe:
"Sitting on top of both the 6.12 block and io_uring core branches,
here's support for async discard through io_uring.
This allows applications to issue async discards, rather than rely on
the blocking sync ioctl discards we already have. The sync support is
difficult to use outside of idle/cleanup periods.
On a real (but slow) device, testing shows the following results when
compared to sync discard:
qd64 sync discard: 21K IOPS, lat avg 3 msec (max 21 msec)
qd64 async discard: 76K IOPS, lat avg 845 usec (max 2.2 msec)
qd64 sync discard: 14K IOPS, lat avg 5 msec (max 25 msec)
qd64 async discard: 56K IOPS, lat avg 1153 usec (max 3.6 msec)
and synthetic null_blk testing with the same queue depth and block
size settings as above shows:
Type Trim size IOPS Lat avg (usec) Lat Max (usec)
