Yes, foff and flen would be ambiguous -- is f folio or file?  I tend
to prefer 'offset' and 'length', but we already have a loff_t length
and having both a len and a length isn't conducive to understanding.
Maybe rename loff_t length to extent_len?

I'm going to leave it for now unless we have a really good suggestion.

Deleted in the very next patch, alas.
