  I have to say I'm still not very happy about this function (but it's much
better than it used to be so thanks for that!). I have two suggestions for
improvement:
1) 'es' is both input and output argument where for input only es_lblk is
used. That's a bit confusing so how about making the function like:

ext4_es_find_delayed_extent(struct inode *inode, ext4_lblk_t offset,
			    struct extent_status *out);

  to separate input and output? Also you can comment that we use the 'out'
parameter instead of returning the extent_status from the tree because that
can be freed once we drop the spinlock protecting status tree.

2) The returned value is somewhat surprisingly the logical offset of the
*next* delalloc extent. It's used only in ext4_fill_fiemap_extents()
AFAICS. It would be easier to understand if the function didn't return
anything. ext4_fill_fiemap_extents() would use
ext4_es_find_delayed_extent() to find both current and next delalloc extent
(which would become the 'current' one in the next iteration). As a bonus
you would also save some iteration of the extent status tree...
