If the lseg is already part of one layoutcommit, but we're sending a
second one for the same range (presumably because we wrote more data in
the same region), then the above causes the lseg to be excluded.

I agree that the current code causes list corruption, but before
applying something like the above patch, I'd like to understand why it
is correct.
