Filesystem blocksize != block device blocksize.  xfs still needs this
check because one can xfs_copy a 64k-fsblock xfs to a hdd with 512b
sectors and try to mount that on x86.

Assuming there /is/ some fs that allows 1G blocksize, you'd then really
want a mount check that would prevent you from mounting that.
