Maybe I am mistaken, but I always thought that table->num_targets is 
amount of targets within single device. e.g. linear dm made by two 
devices concatenation will have two as the number of targets. And I 
think dm-ploop and dm-qcow2 num targets is always one, at least for now

-EINVAL is here to preserve default SEEK_DATA or SEEK_HOLE behavior with 
block devices. Previously fixed_size_llseek() was called in all cases 
and returned -EINVAL when seeking holes or data. So dm devices without 
llseek_hole implementation should return this value too.

The same comment goes for 3/8 patch.
