Can you tell me what you mean by "per-disk host-managed integrity-checking"? Are you running dm-integrity in your setup? Can you post the output of: lsblk so we understand better what you have? But in any case, good luck with getting RAID6 solid and working as a pure LVM setup. I don't think you're going to make it happen any time soon, and I honestly prefer to have seperate layers for my setup so that each layer does it's own think and does it well.
