That commit meant REQ_OP_DISCARD on a loop device is translated into
blkdev_issue_zeroout(), because REQ_OP_DISCARD is handled as
file->f_op->fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE), which will cause
"subsequent reads from this range will return zeroes".

No, that is correct behavior, since loop can support discard or zeroout.

If QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD is set, either discard_granularity or max discard
sectors shouldn't be zero.

This patch shouldn't set discard_granularity if limits.max_write_zeroes_sectors
is zero, will fix it in V2.

I'd suggest you to check the discard related queue limits, and see why
each discard request just sends 4097 sectors.

Or we need to mirror underlying queue's discard_granularity too? Can you
try the following patch?
