With older versions of Lustre if you specified a striping like 65536 bytes
then st_blksize would be returned with stripes * stripe_size.  This caused
problems with NFS export and connectathon because NFS creates files via
mknod() and they don't have file striping associated until the file is
opened, so the st_blksize could change on a file.

We might want to consider revisiting this change.
