It should not hang, really, but it is probably too busy spewing below
message to the console over and over again.
There have been some problems with our trim/discard handling in some situations.
That's also why this does not happen if you say nodiscard.

drbd: allow larger max_discard_sectors
Make sure we have at least 67 (> AL_UPDATES_PER_TRANSACTION)
al-extents available, and allow up to half of that to be
discarded in one bio.

and some more chunks, but you should not cherry-pick stuff "just so",
if it may change semantics ...
kernel v4.4 is roughly equivalent to out-of-tree drbd 8.4.5,
we are at 8.4.9 meanwhile, so you may want to try that as well.
