Formatting.
Also, we don't use variable name shorthand for function names -
xfs_get_atomic_write_hint(ip) to match xfs_get_extsz_hint(ip)
would be appropriate, right?

These should be set in the buftarg at mount time, like we do with
sector size masks. Then we don't need to convert them to fsbs on
every single lookup.

Logic is non-obvious. The compound is (rt || force), not
(extsz && rt), so it took me a while to actually realise I read this
incorrectly.
if (extsz_hint &&
(XFS_IS_REALTIME_INODE(ip) ||
(ip->i_diflags2 & XFS_DIFLAG2_FORCEALIGN))) {

And now the logic looks wrong to me. We don't want to use extsz hint
for RT inodes if force align is not set, this will always use it
regardless of the fact it has nothing to do with force alignment.
Indeed, if XFS_DIFLAG2_FORCEALIGN is not set, then shouldn't this
always return min/max = 0 because atomic alignments are not in us on
this inode?
i.e. the first thing this code should do is:
*unit_min_fsb = 0;
*unit_max_fsb = 0;
if (!(ip->i_diflags2 & XFS_DIFLAG2_FORCEALIGN))
return;
Then we can check device support:
if (!buftarg->bt_atomic_write_max)
return;
Then we can check for extent size hints. If that's not set:
align = xfs_get_extsz_hint(ip);
if (align <= 1) {
unit_min_fsb = 1;
unit_max_fsb = 1;
return;
}
And finally, if there is an extent size hint, we can return that.

Why is it valid for a device to have a zero minimum size? If it can
set a maximum, it should -always- set a minimum size as logical
sector size is a valid lower bound, yes?

Nothing here guarantees the power-of-2 sizes that the RWF_ATOMIC
user interface requires....
It also doesn't check that the extent size hint is aligned with
atomic write units.
It also doesn't check either against stripe unit alignment....

That's just nasty. We pull byte units from the bdev, convert them to
fsb to round them, then convert them back to byte counts. We should
be doing all the work in one set of units....

If the min/max are zero, then atomic writes are not supported on
this inode, right? Why would we set any of the attributes or result
mask to say it is supported on this file?
