Apologies for responding to a question with another question, but has
there ever been an XFS that supported an inode size of more than 8EB?

Linux supports at most a file offset of 8EB, which is 2^63-1, or
0x7FFF,FFFF,FFFF,FFFF.  On a filesystem with 512-byte blocks, the very
last byte in the file would be in block 2^54-1, or 0x3F,FFFF,FFFF,FFFF.
Larger blocksizes decrease that even further (e.g. 2^47-1, or
0x7FFF,FFFF,FFFF on 64k block filesystems).

Therefore, on Linux I conclude that the largest file offset (block)
possible is 2^54-1, which is BMBT_STARTOFF_MASK.  Unless there's an
XFS port that actually supports 16EB files, BMBT_STARTOFF_MASK will
suffice here.
