Can you please explain why you want to use XFS on low end, basic non-MMU devices? XFS is a high performance, enterprise/HPC level filesystem - it's not a filesystem designed for small IoT level devices - so I'm struggling to see why we'd want to expend any effort to make XFS work on such devices....
