Thanks John for the review!

Since as you too mentioned the remaining points are minor and not
critical review comments, I will address them next time in the
multi-fsblock variant. With all other aspects now finalized in this v4
version, this looks ready to be picked up for the merge window.

Sure.

Yes. However I believe we might end up using this from other places when
we add support of extsize. So we might need S_ISREG check.
But sure let me re-think on that during the multi-fsblock variant time.

Sure.
