After commit 6430dea07e85 ("ext4: correct the hole length returned by
ext4_map_blocks()"), the fallocate range 0-16K would be divided into two
rounds. When we first calling ext4_map_blocks() with 0-16K, the map range
will be corrected to 0-8k by ext4_ext_determine_insert_hole() and the
allocating range should not cover any delayed range. Then
ext4_alloc_file_blocks() will call ext4_map_blocks() again to allocate
8K-16K in the second round, in this round, we are allocating a real
delayed range. Please below graph for details,
ext4_alloc_file_blocks() //0-16K
ext4_map_blocks() //0-16K
ext4_es_lookup_extent() //find nothing
ext4_ext_map_blocks(0)
ext4_ext_determine_insert_hole() //change map range to 0-8K
ext4_ext_map_blocks(EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CREATE) //allocate blocks under hole
ext4_map_blocks() //8-16K
ext4_es_lookup_extent() //find delayed extent
ext4_ext_map_blocks(EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CREATE)
//allocate blocks under a whole delayed range,
//use rinfo.delonly_block > 0 is okay
Hence the allocating range can't mixed with delayed and non-delayed extent
at a time, and the rinfo.delonly_block > 0 should work.

The same to above, ext4_ext_determine_insert_hole() should work fine for
this case.
