Instead of suppressing the hung task complaints, has it been considered
to use the bio splitting mechanism to make discard bios smaller? Block
drivers may set a limit by calling blk_queue_max_discard_segments().
From block/blk-settings.c:

/**
* blk_queue_max_discard_segments - set max segments for discard
* requests
* @q: the request queue for the device
* @max_segments: max number of segments
*
* Description:
* Enables a low level driver to set an upper limit on the number of
* segments in a discard request.
**/
void blk_queue_max_discard_segments(struct request_queue *q,
unsigned short max_segments)
{
q->limits.max_discard_segments = max_segments;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(blk_queue_max_discard_segments);

Thanks,

Bart.
