2^21 rtexts is ... 2^18 bytes worth of rtbitmap block, which implies a
transaction reservation of around ... ~300K?  I guess I'll have to go
play with xfs_db to see how small of a datadev you can make before that
causes us to fail the minimum log size checks.

As you said on IRC, it probably won't affect /most/ setups... but I
don't want to run around increasing support calls either.  Even if most
distributors don't turn on rt support.

Yeah...
