[PATCH][RFC] xfs_copy: don't use DIRECT IO to copy 4k sector device

[Zorro Lang]

When I run xfstests xfs/032 in ppc64le, I hit a failure:

     xfs_copy: read failed: Invalid argument
     xfs_copy: size check failed
     xfs_copy: /dev/sda5 filesystem failed to initialize
     xfs_copy: Aborting.
     Copy failed for Sector size 4096 Block size 4096

I try to use gdb trace xfs_copy. I find it try to open the
source device with DIRECT flag, then read the device with
((1<<BBSHIFT))=512 bytes length. If the source device is
4k sector, directly read 512 bytes will be failed.

xfs_copy '-b' option only work for target file/device, to
sure it will open the target without DIRECT flag. But useless
for source device open.

So I make DIRECT flag only be enabled when source device
sector size equal BBSIZE.

Hi,

I'm not so familiar for xfsprogs, so I'm not sure this's the best
idea to fix this problem. Please help to check, and maybe give me
better suggestions.

Thanks very much,
Zorro Lang
