The grep/sed expression is also overly complex - it can easily be
replaced with just this:
nexts=`$XFS_IO_PROG -c "stat" $name | sed -ne 's/^fsxattr.nextents = //p'
The "-n" option to sed suppresses the printing of the stream
(pattern space) to the output as it processes the input, which gets
rid of the need for using grep to suppress non-matching input. The "p"
suffix to the search string forces matched patterns to be printed to
the output.
This results in only matched, substituted pattern spaces to be
printed, avoiding the need for grep and multiple sed regexes to be
matched to strip the text down to just the integer string.

Which is wrong when testing a v4 filesystem - in that case the inode
core size is 96 bytes and so max extents may be larger on v4
filesystems than v5 filesystems....
