Please forgive me once again, I've found the problem.

My initial request was about discard on dm-crypt (encrypted LUKS device).

>From the link you sent it seems to be not supported:

"The only DM targets that do not support discards are dm-snapshot,
dm-crypt, and dm-raid45. Discard support for the dm-mirror was added in Red
Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1. "

Very sad, any chance of adding this support?
