Thanks. Re: Dave's comment on the 'Fixes:' tag [1]...

I've locally dropped the tag and appended the following sentence to the
last paragraph in the commit log:

"This allows kernels that include the packing fix commit 96f859d52bcb
("libxfs: pack the agfl header structure so XFS_AGFL_SIZE is correct")
to handle older unpacked AGFL formats without a filesystem crash."

I think that demonstrates intent without making the (already long)
commit log too much longer. Thoughts? I can send that as v3 if it's
easier, but I'd prefer to get this nailed down first if there are no
further comments on the patch.
