Hi Martin,

My (new developed) distributed block device uses a block size of 64K.
So, because of the distribution functionality to different underlying
slave (dm-cache) block devices, it has:
- max_discard_sectors: 128 (64K)
- discard_granularity: 65536 (64K)
The discard sizes of the (underlying) dm-cache devices are:
- max_discard_sectors: 536870912 (256G)
- discard_granularity: 268435456 (256M)

Regards,
Florian
