After reviewing this patch it's not crystal clear to me why we were
putting all that effort into keeping this counter uptodate on the inode
instead of using helpers like you've implemented.  Maybe a question of
integer division as Dave suggested.  This is a nice improvement.

The logic in these two appears to be equivalent to the code you've
replaced in all but one case...

All other tests for this were:
XFS_IFORK_NEXTENTS(ip, whichfork) > ifp->if_ext_max

Did you just fix a lurking off-by-one or insert one?

xfs_bmap_needs_btree needs ip->i_d.di_nextents to have been incremented 
already in order to detect that we need to convert to btree format.  In
this case we haven't done that yet and are checking to see if doing so
would require conversion to btree format... 

Looks to me like we can't use xfs_bmap_needs_btree here and should use
the old logic.  Right?

Good readability improvement.
