It's probably not worth it. This looks like a good clean up to me as it
is... I just wanted to call that out since I was using/changing 'prev'.
Looking again, the cow prealloc stuff is still going to use the data
extent record. I may be able to convert 'prev' to 'base' within
*_prealloc_size() just the same without changing the function signature
back.
