    dm thin: fix a memory leak when passing discard bio down · 948f581a

    dm-thin does not free the discard_parent bio after all chained sub
    bios finished. The following kmemleak report could be observed after
    pool with discard_passdown option processes discard bios in
    linux v4.11-rc7. To fix this, we drop the discard_parent bio reference
    when its endio (passdown_endio) called.
