Alvaro Karsz e60d640742 virtio_blk: add SECURE ERASE command support
Support for the VIRTIO_BLK_F_SECURE_ERASE VirtIO feature.

A device that offers this feature can receive VIRTIO_BLK_T_SECURE_ERASE
commands.

A device which supports this feature has the following fields in the
virtio config:

- max_secure_erase_sectors
- max_secure_erase_seg
- secure_erase_sector_alignment

max_secure_erase_sectors and secure_erase_sector_alignment are expressed
in 512-byte units.

Every secure erase command has the following fields:

- sectors: The starting offset in 512-byte units.
- num_sectors: The number of sectors.

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.
