If we're only allowing atomic writes that are 1 fsblock or less, then

IOWs, it's forcealign that isn't compatible with reflink and you can
drop this incompatibility.
That was my thought as well when reading through this patch.
ok, fine. I just thought that we don't want to mix reflinked files and
atomic writes at all. I do understand that there was also an
incompatibility between forcealign and reflink.
