xfs: expose block size in stat

For block size larger than page size, the unit of efficient IO is
the block size, not the page size. Leaving stat() to report
PAGE_SIZE as the block size causes test programs like fsx to issue
illegal ranges for operations that require block size alignment
(e.g. fallocate() insert range). Hence update the preferred IO size
to reflect the block size in this case.

This change is based on a patch originally from Dave Chinner.[1]
