I don't think this is safe. If you want to do the aboe you also need to ensure ->execute_unmap always zeroes the data. For actual files in the file backend we should be all fine, but for the block device case [1] and iblock we'd need to use blkdev_issue_zeroout instead of blkdev_issue_discard when unmap_zeroes_data is set. [1] which btw already seems broken as it doesn't invalidate cached data when issuing a discard. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
