[Devel] [PATCH VZ10 v2 07/10] drivers/md/dm-qcow2: unmap cluster when discard clears last allocated subclusters

A subclusters discard only clears bits in the extended L2 bitmap and
keeps the cluster mapped. Teach dm-qcow2 to clear L2 entry if every
subcluster is discarded.
Feature: dm-qcow2: block device over QCOW2 files driver
