OK, this matches what I've said. The unwritten extent is there because the
inode is just undergoing writeback and that may (at least temporarily)
increase number of extents. The inode can hold 4 extents, once fifth extent
is added we have to allocate indirect block which is what breaks your test.
So nothing unexpected here. Thanks for checking!
