Sounds logical.

Yeah, I've shuffled this code around quite a bit myself.

Ok, I'll try to pull that logic up and see what falls out.

I think I'm parsing you after having another look at the code.
xfs_inobt_lookup() remains as is and is potentially used from
xfs_inobt_insert(). xfs_inobt_insert_rec() is introduced to set the
cursor fields and do the insert and is used here and from
xfs_inobt_insert().

At that point, this looks close to xfs_inobt_insert(), but I think using
that here would introduce a duplicate lookup. Regardless, we'll see what
the whole thing looks like at that point. Thanks for the reviews. :)
