But why change current rtvol behaviour?

Yes, I would think so. I quickly checked rtvol for truncate and it does
the round up. I would need to check the relevant code for truncate and
fallocate for forcealign now.
I do also wonder if we could factor out this rounding up code for
truncate, facallocate, and whatever else.

I would rather get rid of xfs_get_extsz() for sure.
