sd: Make discard granularity match logical block size when LBPRZ=1 A device may report an OPTIMAL UNMAP GRANULARITY and UNMAP GRANULARITY ALIGNMENT in the Block Limits VPD. These parameters describe the device's internal provisioning allocation units. By default the block layer will round and align any discard requests based on these limits. If a device reports LBPRZ=1 to guarantee zeroes after discard, however, it is imperative that the block layer does not leave out any parts of the requested block range. Otherwise the device can not do the required zeroing of any partial allocation units and this can lead to data corruption. Since the dm thinp personality relies on the block layer's current behavior and is unable to deal with partial discard blocks we work around the problem by setting the granularity to match the logical block size when LBPRZ is enabled.
