We really should be storing these in the xfs_buftarg at mount time,
like we do logical and physical sector sizes. Similar to sector
sizes, they *must not change* once the filesystem has been created
on the device, let alone during an active mount. The whole point of
the xfs_buftarg is to store the information the filesystem
needs to do IO to the underlying block device so we don't have to
chase pointers deep into the block device whenever we need to use
static geometry information.....

Again, this is comparing static geometry - if the block size doesn't
allow atomic writes, then the inode flag should never be set. i.e.
geometry is checked when configuring atomic writes, not in every
place we need to check if atomic writes are supported. Hence this
should simply be:

	if (!xfs_inode_has_atomic_writes(ip)) {
		*unit_min = 0;
		*unit_max = 0;
		return;
	}

before we even look at the xfs_buftarg to get the supported min/max
values for the given device.

Cheers,

Dave.
