We should clear them on free now, so that we can draw a line in the
sand for when we can have verifiers check it. e.g. when the next
feature bit gets introduced, filesystems with that feature bit set
can also verify the extent size hints are zero on freed inodes
because we know that kernels supporting that feature always zero
them on free....

Cheers,

Dave.
