This is primarily for rbd's benefit and is supposed to combat fragmentation: "... knowing that rbd images have a 4m size, librbd can pass a hint that will let the osd do the xfs allocation size ioctl on new files so that they are allocated in 1m or 4m chunks. We've seen cases where users with rbd workloads have very high levels of fragmentation in xfs and this would mitigate that and probably have a pretty nice performance benefit." SETALLOCHINT is considered advisory, so our backwards compatibility mechanism here is to set FAILOK flag for all SETALLOCHINT ops.
