Part of the blkdev_issue_discard(xx) operation is that it can also
issue a secure discard operation that will permanantly remove the
sectors in question. We advertise that we can support that via the
'discard-secure' attribute and on the request, if the 'secure' bit
is set, we will attempt to pass in REQ_DISCARD | REQ_SECURE.
CC: Li Dongyang <lidongyang@novell.com>
[v1: Used 'flag' instead of 'secure:1' bit]
[v2: Use 'reserved' uint8_t instead of adding a new value]
[v3: Check for nseg when mapping instead of operation]

The xenbus module provides xenbus_map_ring_valloc() and
xenbus_map_ring_vfree(). Use these to map the ring pages granted by
the frontend.

We emulate the barrier requests by draining the outstanding bio's
and then sending the WRITE_FLUSH command. To drain the I/Os
we use the refcnt that is used during disconnect to wait for all
the I/Os before disconnecting from the frontend. We latch on its
value and if it reaches either the threshold for disconnect or when
there are no more outstanding I/Os, then we have drained all I/Os.

..aka ATA TRIM/SCSI UNMAP command to be passed through the frontend
and used as appropiately by the backend. We also advertise
certain granulity parameters to the frontend so it can plug them in.
If the backend is a realy device - we just end up using
'blkdev_issue_discard' while for loopback devices - we just punch
a hole in the image file.

BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER.

for the 'feature-flush-cache' if the real backend storage supports
flushing.

And also shorten the name if it has blkback to blkbk.
This results in the symbol table (if compiled in the kernel)
to be much shorter, prettier, and also easier to search for.
