No, it's better to set your sw/su accordingly to your RAID setup
(example: 8 drives RAID-10 256k stripe -> su=256k,sw=4) and let
mkfs.xfs determine itself how many ag it wants, to adapt it both to the
striping and filesystem size.

agcount will be adjusted by xfs_growfs AFAIK. For the other parameters,
not so much.

I really have no idea on this.
