I guess those are metadata so we have no alignment requirements and over-reserving isn't a huge deal? I also wonder if the xfs_bmapi_write call in xfs_iomap_write_unwritten needs the same treatment, but the resblks calculation inexplicably(?) doubles itself. Not sure why, since in the "splitting the middle of an extent" case we hold the ilock across both insertions, and one split should leave us with two half-full leaves, right? (Maybe this is its own investigate-and-fix patch...) <shrug> In the mean time, this part looks ok. Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
