Neither the kernel nor the code in xfsprogs support filesystems that
have (either reverse mapping btrees or reflink) enabled and a realtime
volume configured.  The kernel rejects such combinations and mkfs
refuses to format such a config, but xfsprogs doesn't check and can do
Bad Things, so port those checks before someone shreds their filesystem.

seems fine in general but a couple thoughts...

Hm, we really don't use xfs_sb_version_hasrealtime() very consistently, but it might
be worth doing here?

I wish we had a feature flag to cross-ref against, a corruption in sb_rblocks will lead
to an untouchable filesystem, but I guess there's nothing we can do about that.

Actually, would it help to cross-check against the rtdev arg as well?  Should we do anything
different if the user actually specified a realtime device on the commandline?

I mean, I suppose

I like this optimism.  ;)

Nah, I'll move it to rtmount_init.

I guess xfs_repair could add a -E killrt=1 flag that would read the sb,
zero out sb_rblocks, and pass that to libxfs_mount.

I doubt it?  I mean, the fs allege it has an rt volume and some
unsupported feature; it doesn't matter if the user did or didn't pass an
rtdev.

you suppose...?

Optimism?

/me now has an xfsprogs that /does/ support rt rmap and reflink, though
at current patch review rates it won't hit the list until 2024, and
that's assuming I can keep ahead of all the bitrot in rtrmap...
