*nod*

I just pushed xfsprogs-5.15.0 out today and it'll be built in rawhide shortly.
If we need this in released Fedoras I'm happy to push 5.15.0 to older
releases as well.

As for ext4, it might be wise to raise the small-filesystem issue on the
ext4 list.

OTOH, the ext4 "small" threshold is 512MB so another option might be to
just be sure to size /boot to at least 512mb to get Y2038-happy inodes.

        else if (fs_blocks_count < 512 * meg)
                size_type = "small";
