This patch adds base support for atomic writes via statx getattr.
On bs < ps systems, we can create FS with say bs of 16k. That means
both atomic write min and max unit can be set to 16k for supporting
atomic writes.

This looks a bit complicated. I would just follow the XFS example and ensure bdev_atomic_write_unit_min_bytes() <= sb->s_blocksize <= bdev_atomic_write_unit_max_bytes() [which you are doing, but in a complicated way]
