For these rmap ones because of our header mess - xfs_rmap.h is included
without or before xfs_inode.h, so without giant reshuffling using inlines
here will fail the compile.

For the xfs_format.h ones mostly to follow the surrounding style,
although if I tried I'd probably run into the same header ordering mess.
