nbd_co_discard calls nbd_client_session_co_discard which uses uint32_t
as the length in bytes of the data to discard due to the following
definition:
struct nbd_request {
uint32_t magic;
uint32_t type;
uint64_t handle;
uint64_t from;
uint32_t len; <-- the length of data to be discarded, in bytes
} QEMU_PACKED;
Thus we should limit bl_max_discard to UINT32_MAX >> BDRV_SECTOR_BITS to
avoid overflow.
NBD read/write code uses the same structure for transfers. Fix
max_transfer_length accordingly.

Thanks, I have applied both Peter's and your patch. Can you guys please
check whether the current state of my block branch is correct or whether
I forgot to include or remove some patch?
can you give me tree URL?
By the way, I don't think this NBD patch is strictly necessary as you'll
have a hard time finding a platform where INT_MAX > UINT32_MAX, but I
think it's good documentation at least and a safeguard if we ever decide
to lift the general block layer restrictions.

nope, it is absolutely mandatory
stdint.h:
/* Limit of `size_t' type. */
# if __WORDSIZE == 64
# define SIZE_MAX (18446744073709551615UL)
# else
# define SIZE_MAX (4294967295U)
# endif
