 The original assumption was that this was not a problem because discards
 are only cached during discard/write zeroes operations, which are
 synchronous so that no concurrent write requests can cause cluster
 allocations.
 
 However, the discard/write zeroes operation itself can allocate a new L2
 table (and it has to in order to put zero flags there), so make sure we
 can cope with the situation.
