By "simple", I mean that from our side all we should need to do is set 'num_discard_bios = 1' in dm-raid.c. That is, if things are working fine in MD. We could even make that conditional depending on the type of RAID (e.g. discards for RAID1, but not RAID5). It could end up being that simple, but I need to know if MD has proper support for discards and all the kinks have been worked out.
