[PATCH, RFC] default to inode64 on 64-bit systems

I'm tiring of telling people to use the inode64 mount option
when they are experiencing bad performance on large xfs
filesystems...
32-bit userspace is still largely broken when it comes to still
using 32-bit stat calls, but on 64-bit systems this should be
safe.
The only problem here is moving the disk onto a 32-bit system, or using
32-bit apps. But I think it's a small risk.
What do we think about the following?
Thanks,
-Eric
