Well, that's quite fixable.

Doesn't really bother me -

But please send a man page patch.  ;)

And then we need to fix up xfstests... at least one fails as a result of
this IIRC, I'll have to go look again.

I don't care if the defaults change but I'd prefer it to not
have happened accidentally via

"mkfs.xfs: validate options for CRCs up front" ;)

It wasn't documented & didn't seem intentional, so it needs
fixing one way or the other.
