do not trim requests if the driver does not supply a limit
through BlockLimits. For write zeroes we still keep a limit
for the unsupported path to avoid allocating a big bounce buffer.

Thanks, applied to the block branch (and removed 'block/raw-posix: set
max_write_zeroes to INT_MAX for regular files' from the queue).

double checked the code.

There are 2 things to patch for discard, write_zeroes is OK for me.
Sorry, for not paying attention for discard branch :(

Good catch, thanks!

But shouldn't we use the actual limits instead of INT_MAX, i.e. SIZE_MAX
for gluster and UINT32_MAX for nbd?

You are absolutely correct for NBD case but I do not get the
point about SIZE_MAX for gluster. There is no such definition
in their git at git://github.com/gluster/glusterfs nor in
public API headers in Ubuntu :(

SIZE_MAX is defined in stdint.h (provided by the C library).

In this case the code should avoid overflow on 64bit arch.

OK, re-spinning.
