Darrick J. Wong 52a8a1ba88 xfs: fix undersized l_iclog_roundoff values
If the superblock doesn't list a log stripe unit, we set the incore log
roundoff value to 512.  This leads to corrupt logs and unmountable
filesystems in generic/617 on a disk with 4k physical sectors...

...on the current xfsprogs for-next which has a broken mkfs.  xfs_info
shows this...

...observe that the log section has sectsz=4096 sunit=0, which means
that the roundoff factor is 512, not 4096 as you'd expect.  We should
fix mkfs not to generate broken filesystems, but anyone can fuzz the
ondisk superblock so we should be more cautious.  I think the inadequate
logic predates commit a6a65fef5e, but that's clearly going to
require a different backport.
