[Bug 1461572] [NEW] Minimum qemu version for discard support is 1.5

 

Public bug reported:

While the minimum version of qemu that supports discard on qcow2 is 1.6,
it is incorrect to limit discard support to this version as qemu 1.5
supports discard for iscsi and rbd and possibly others.  The release
notes are clear, with qemu 1.5 and better discard support depends on the
qemu driver used.
