THere are no xflags set, meaning the XFS_DIFLAG_EXTSZINHERIT is not
set on the directory so nothing will inherit the extsize from the
directory at creation time. An extsize of zero is the default "don't
do any non-default extent size alignment" (i.e. align to stripe
parameters if the filesystem has them set, but nothing else.)

If this is the root directory of a mounted filesystem, it means the
extent size hint was not set by mkfs, and it hasn't been set
manually via xfs_io after mount, either.
