Whenever l2/refcount table clusters are discarded from the file we can
automatically drop unnecessary content of the cache tables. This reduces
the chance of eviction useful cache data and eliminates inconsistent data
in the cache with the data in the file.

This is not wrong, but wouldn't actually even refcount == 0 be enough as
a condition to evict the cluster from the cache? I don't think it really
matters whether we actually send a discard request or not for the image
file.

Yes, you're right. Will fix.
