Hmmm sooo... this doesn't solve Eric's immediate problem where xfsdump
needs to be fed the root inode. We assumed for years that the first
inode returned by bulkstat would always be the root dir, but it turned
out that mkfs puts the root dir at the start of the first possible inode
chunk past the end of the (AG headers + AG btree roots + AGFL blocks).
If all those blocks get freed then inodes can sneak into AG 0 before the
"first" inode chunk, invalidating the assumption.
IOWS, do we need to retrofit SPECIAL_ROOT into the old FSBULKSTAT_SINGLE
somehow? Maybe if you pass in bulkreq.lastip == NULL then you get root?
