[dm-devel] [PATCH 2/3] dm raid: only check for RAID 4/5/6 once during discard support setup

[Paul Wise]

The RAID level 4/5/6 check no longer looks at the devices in the array,
so it isn't necessary for it to be checked once for each device,
so check it before the loop over the devices.

This makes the code cleaner and easier to understand since it
disentangles whole-array checks from per-device checks.

Commit 48920ff2a5a9 ("block: remove the discard_zeroes_data flag") removed
the per-device discard_zeroes_data check since REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES
operation was used everywhere and commit 48cf06bc5f50 ("dm raid: add
discard support for RAID levels 4, 5 and 6") introduced the RAID 4/5/6
check.
