Mike Snitzer 22f9c13508 dm thin: do not set discard_zeroes_data
commit 307615a26e upstream.

The dm thin pool target claims to support the zeroing of discarded
data areas.  This turns out to be incorrect when processing discards
that do not exactly cover a complete number of blocks, so the target
must always set discard_zeroes_data_unsupported.

The thin pool target will zero blocks when they are allocated if the
skip_block_zeroing feature is not specified.  The block layer
may send a discard that only partly covers a block.  If a thin pool
block is partially discarded then there is no guarantee that the
discarded data will get zeroed before it is accessed again.
Due to this, thin devices cannot claim discards will always zero data.
