Actually it is not and you should check
request_queue->limits.discard_granularity

Does not matter what units are you using for len. I it just that you are
checking for (free >= (len - trimmed)) which is wrong because len is not
meant to be "overall length of trimmed data" but rather "overall length
of data to walk through and check for free extents" see ext4
implementation for reference.
