Well, I learnt something today.

So we only support 56 bit inode numbers in shortform directories?
AFAIK, Nothing else in the code enforces this limitation. I
just found XFS_MAXINUMBER to define the maximum inode
number to be 56 bits in size, but, well, it's not used anywhere
relevant (like when initialising AGs)......

Hmmmm. I wonder if it is a hold-over from the days of 4GB AGs?
That would have meant inode numbers used 6 bits for the chunk index,
2^22 - 2^6 for the agbno and 2^32 for the agno, which gives 54 bits
maximum inode number and so XFS_MAXINUMBER @ 56 bits makes sense, as
does the zero high byte in the dir2 inode number.

Now we have 2^30 bits for the agbno+chunk index, and 32 bits for the
agno, so inode numbers can reach 62 bits, which is outside the range
of the 56-bit MAXINUMBER limit.

So my questions are now this:
	- is there any other reason for a 56 bit inode number limit?
	- why isn't it enforced for the rest of the directory code?
	- did we lose that checking when we converted the rest of
	  the directory code to use the generic byte swapping
	  functions?
	- do we need to increase XFS_MAXINUMBER to reflect the
	  current reality of 1TB AGs and simply ignore the zero high
	  byte restriction?

As it is, we need to update AG initialisation to disallow inode
allocation in AGs above the XFS_MAXINUMBER if we don't allow them in
the directory structure....

This comment is what lead me one that path....

As a straight translation this patch is fine, but I think I'd like
to resolve some of the questions it raises first before anything
else....

Cheers,
