xfs: correct the narrative around misaligned rtinherit/extszinherit dirs
While auditing the realtime growfs code, I realized that the GROWFSRT ioctl (and by extension xfs_growfs) has always allowed sysadmins to change the realtime extent size when adding a realtime section to the filesystem. Since we also have always allowed sysadmins to set RTINHERIT and EXTSZINHERIT on directories even if there is no realtime device, this invalidates the premise laid out in the comments added in commit 603f000b15f2. In other words, this is not a case of inadequate metadata validation. This is a case of nearly forgotten (and apparently untested) but supported functionality. Update the comments to reflect what we've learned, and remove the log message about correcting the misalignment. Fixes: 603f000b15f2 ("xfs: validate extsz hints against rt extent size when rtinherit is set") Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
