The original logic in validate_sectorsize() is:

  static void 
  validate_sectorsize(
    ...
    if (!cli->sectorsize) {
	cfg->sectorsize = dft->sectorsize;
    } else {
	cfg->sectorsize = cli->sectorsize;
    }
    ...
    if (!cli->sectorsize) {
	if (!ft->lsectorsize)
	   ft->lsectorsize = XFS_MIN_SECTORSIZE;
	...
	cfg->sectorsize = ft->psectorsize;
	...
    } 
    ...
  }

Firstly, if not set via commandline and probing fails, we will use the
XFS_MIN_SECTORSIZE (actually equal to dft->sectorsize). 
Secondly, for the !cli->sectorsize case, the first if statement set cfg->sectorsize
to dft->sectorsize, but the cfg->sectorsize value would be overwrote and set to
ft->psectorsize in the next if statement, so the first if statement is meaningless
and the two if statements can be combined.
