Jens,

I don't believe DM supports discard / trim passthru.  For
clarification, you should ask on the Device Mapper list.
<dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx>

Alternatively, you may find that the wiper.sh script packaged with
hdparm may work.  wiper.sh bypasses the DM layer and talks directly to
the drives, but it too has limitations.  The wiper.sh script is meant
to be called on a routine basis via cron, etc.
