Reiser4 tail packing policy can be set by "-o formatting=xxx" option.
List of all available options can be displayed by mkfs.reiser4 -l:

"extents"           (id:0x0 type:0x5) ['Extents only' tail policy plugin.]
"tails"             (id:0x1 type:0x5) ['Tails only' tail policy plugin.]
"smart"             (id:0x2 type:0x5) [Smart tail policy: If file is 
smaller than 20K, store it in tails,
otherwise convert it to extents. Default option.
