I will add this in the next revision.

I was thinking of possibility of an overflow but at the moment the 
blocklog is capped at 16 (65536 bytes) right? mkfs refuses any block
sizes more than 64k. And we have check for this in xfs_validate_sb_common()
in the kernel, which will catch it before this happens?

Ah, good point. So it is better to use uint64_t for mapping_count as
well to be on the safe side?
