XFS is enabled in the 64-bit kernel but NOT in the 32-bit kernel.

Yes, you can build your own 32-bit kernel with xfs enabled.  However,
use xfs on 32-bit systems with caution because xfs has problems with
4K stack size (x86_64 uses 8k stacks). This is the main reason why
upstream does not support it.

Another note is that, if you are determined to go for xfs on 32-bit,
you can just build the xfs module instead of the whole kernel.
