It is not.  Martin has decoupled write same/zeroes support from discard
support.  Any device will claim to support it initially, and we'll
only clear the flag if a Write Same command fails.

So even if LBPRZ is not set you can trivially get into a situation
where discard is supported through UNMAP, and you'll incorrectly
set LBPRZ and will cause data corruption.
