I haven't looked closely into this commit but I already implemented
something similar in order to speed up trimming by not discarding an
already discarded region twice. The code was introduced by the following
series:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/20190327122418.24027-1-nborisov@suse.com/
in particular patches 13 to 15 .

Can you leverage it ? If not then your code should, at some point,
subsume the old one.
