Subject: [PATCH] nfs: set block size according to pnfs_blksize first

When testing fstests with ext4 over nfs 4.2, I found generic/486
failed. The root cause is that the length of its xattr value is
  min(st_blksize * 3 / 4, XATTR_SIZE_MAX)

which is 4096 * 3 / 4 = 3072 for underlayfs ext4 rather than
XATTR_SIZE_MAX = 65536 for nfs since the block size would be wsize
(=131072) if bsize is not specified.

Let's use pnfs_blksize first instead of using wsize directly if
bsize isn't specified. And the testcase itself can pass now.

Considering bsize is not specified, we might use pnfs_blksize
directly first rather than wsize.
