Ugh; I had that backwards.
*XFS_MOUNT_SMALL_INUMS* means that inode32 was specified at mount time.
For the reasons I stated, *that* flag should never be cleared. It
signifies a specified mount option, which does not go away just because
the filesystem is currently small.
Maybe we need clearer flag names :/
