These two changes by themselves look fairly innocuous, but upon closer
inspection I'm not so sure...

e.g. xfs_fsize_t is still signed, and i_size is loff_t is still signed.
I'm wondering if this doesn't represent a subtle change in the on-disk
format for inodes up in that size range.  This was on my 3.12 queue.  I
think it bears more discussion, so I'll hold off on this one for now.

FWIW I believe we're still ok with just Dan's fix because the maximum
size for local format is half a block or less.

Thanks,
	Ben
