Currently I am working on patches for other file system, so we'll get it fix. Having the check in VFS would require to make FITRIM file system (inode?) operation, or adding cmd specific sections to the vfs_ioctl(). All of this just for one check and file system implementation would have to do other check anyway because we can hardly do all of that in VFS. So I think it's not worth it.
