Looks like Eric dropped this line when he forward ported this patch to v3.1. Interestingly, I did test this using xfstests, and it didn't complain. Which probably means we don't have a good test coverage that triggers the specific preconditions of this optimization. Oops. I'll fix this up now. Eric, when you have a chance, could you work up an xfstests test that automates the various tests that you ran manually when you developed this patch?
