xfs_rtallocate currently has two fallbacks, when an allocation fails:
1) drop the requested extent size alignment, if any, and retry
2) ignore the locality hint
Oddly enough it does those in order, as trying a different location
is more in line with what the user asked for, and does it in a very
unstructured way.
Lift the fallback to try to allocate without the locality hint into
xfs_rtallocate to both perform them in a more sensible order and to
clean up the code.
