I think we could do it.  The major difference between the two is the
prefix we use for the dabno "have I seen this block before?" bitmap
functions.  But that and the scrub/listxattr.c code would both have to
be lifted to libxfs, and as long as we're doing that we might as well
clean up the userspace bitmap implementation.

(IOWs that's a somewhat lengthy cleanup for userspace either for after
we get the rt modernization stuff merged or if we get really bored
sitting in meetings.)
