It's better to use the resize_inode for file systems that are smaller than 16TB, even if the 64-bit flag is enabled, since using the meta_bg style resizing spreads out the block group descriptors, which increases the time to mount the file system. Using the resize_inode will defer the need to go to the meta_bg-style resizing until we cross the 16TB boundary.
