FYI, I'm seeing regular failures with generic/757 when using Darrick's
not yet merged RT rmap support, but only with that.

But the whole discard thing leaves me really confused, and the commit
log in the patch references by the above link doesn't clear that up
either.

Why does dmlogwrites require discard for XFS (and apprently XFS only)?
Note that discard is not required and often does not zero data.  So
if we need data to be zeroed we need to do that explicitly, and
preferably in a way that is obvious.
