Christoph Hellwig 3eba802d47 target: remove an incorrect unmap zeroes data deduction
[ Upstream commit 179d8609d8 ]

For block devices, the SCSI target drivers implements UNMAP as calls to
blkdev_issue_discard, which does not guarantee zeroing just because
Write Zeroes is supported.

Note that this does not affect the file backed path which uses
fallocate to punch holes.

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.
