    These 2 upstream Linux commits break the block instrumentation in lttng
    modules master:

    https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/288dab8a35a0bde426a09870943c8d3ee3a50dab
    
    The errors are :
    
    lttng-modules/probes/../instrumentation/events/lttng-module/block.h:35:13:
    error: ‘REQ_DISCARD’ undeclared (first use in this function)
