Everyone who tries to modify mkfs quickly learns that it is a pile
of spaghetti, the only difference in opinion is whether it is a
steaming, cold or rotten pile. This patchset attempts to untangle
the ball of pasta and turn it into a set of clear, obvious
operations that lead to a filesystem being formatted correctly.

I am thankful that all the XFS filesystems I created up to now *somehow* 
worked. By pure accident maybe :)

Thanks for the commit description which gave me a quite a bit of hearty 
laughing.

Thanks
