One minor correction --- the clusterfs e2fsprogs extents code checks
to see if the ee_leaf_hi field is non-zero, and complains if so.
However, it ignores the ee_start_hi field for interior (non-leaf)
nodes in the extent tree, and a number of tests do have non-zero
ee_start_hi fields which cause my version of e2fsprogs to (rightly)
complain.

If you fix this, a whole bunch of tests will fail as a result, and not
exercise the code paths that the tests were apparently trying to
exercise.  Which is what is causing me a bit of worry and wonder about
how those test cases were originally generated....
