Yes, ->height is initialized to zero.

Yes, I think that will work.  I might be a little more explicit that
we're handling two cases here.

Correct.  This is much better. :)

If the block passes the magic number/uuid/verifier tests then we're
certain that the block belongs to this btree type and we don't need to
try the other btree types.  Therefore, *found_it should indeed be set
earlier in the function.  It should probably be renamed *done or
something.

Ok so here's the new code, starting right after we finish the
magic/uuid/verifier tests:

	/*
	 * This block passes the magic number and verifier test for this tree
	 * type.  We don't need the caller to try the other tree types.
	 */
	*done_with_block = true;

	block_level = xfs_btree_get_level(btblock);
	if (block_level + 1 == fab->height) {
		/*
		 * This block claims to be at the same level as the root we
		 * found previously.  There can't be two candidate roots, so
		 * we'll throw away both of them and hope we later find a block
		 * even higher in the tree.
		 */
		fab->root = NULLAGBLOCK;
		goto out;
	} else if (block_level < fab->height) {
		/*
		 * This block is lower in the tree than the root we found
		 * previously, so just ignore it.
		 */
		goto out;
	}

	/*
	 * This is the highest block in the tree that we've found so far.
	 * Update the btree height to reflect what we've learned from this
	 * block.
	 */
	fab->height = block_level + 1;

	/*
	 * If this block doesn't have sibling pointers, then it's the new root
	 * block candidate.  Otherwise, the root will be found farther up the
	 * tree.
	 */
	if (btblock->bb_u.s.bb_leftsib == cpu_to_be32(NULLAGBLOCK) &&
	    btblock->bb_u.s.bb_rightsib == cpu_to_be32(NULLAGBLOCK))
		fab->root = agbno;
	else
		fab->root = NULLAGBLOCK;

Will ship this out for testing and see what happens. :)
