So xfs_get_atomic_write_max_attr() -> xfs_inode_can_atomicwrite() covers
no HW support.
The point of this function is just to calc atomic write limits according
to mount point geometry and features.
Do you think that it is necessary to call xfs_inode_can_atomicwrite()
here also? [And remove the xfs_get_atomic_write_max_attr() ->
xfs_inode_can_atomicwrite()?]

I am just trying to be concise to limit spilling lines.
Maybe atomicwrite_unit_max is preferred

there are a few overly long lines here (so following that example), but
since there is a request to change the name, I'll be definitely using a
newline for the comment
Thanks,
