Sorry I didn't see this earlier. Josef is right; discard is not a remountable option on xfs, unfortunately (only inode64 and barrier options are remountable today). So you could either put the option in the rootflags= kernel commandline parameter, or rebuild the initrd after adding it to fstab as Josef suggested so that it's initially mounted with the option. I wonder if we should add something to the remount path to printk when a non-remountable option is encountered; I might look into that, otherwise it's a little surprising (although semi-obvious when the problem doesn't show up in /prcoc/mounts...).
