Lazy superblock counters was released into mainline in 2.6.23-rc1. Some
distros are still running an older kernel (2.6.22 for example) and with
the latest xfsprogs, cannot mount a freshly made filesystem with default
options.
This patch make lazy counters default back to off now.
Users who have a more recent kernel can easily enable them with mkfs or
xfs_admin -c1 (in a patch posted out a few days ago which will be in the
same xfsprogs release as this patch).
Lazy counters will default to on again in xfsprogs 2.10.0 (when CI support
is released). This should give enough time for distro kernels to catch up.
