Ok, so here's what I think is going on. You're creating a linear target
which happens to fit inside the first PV.

Here's two devices. One that supports discard_zeroes_data=1 (8:17) and
one that doesn't (8:49).

# dmsetup table 
foo-bar: 0 1032192 striped 2 32 8:17 384 8:49 384
foo-baz: 0 106496 linear 8:17 516480

# grep . /sys/block/d*/queue/discard_z*
/sys/block/dm-0/queue/discard_zeroes_data:0
/sys/block/dm-1/queue/discard_zeroes_data:1

LV foo/bar (dm-0) is striped, straddling two devices with incompatible
values. Hence 0.

LV foo/baz (dm-1) is linear and fits inside the first PV. Thus it has
discard_zeroes_data=1.
