I thought about that, but I don't think it makes any difference. If
there are no delalloc extents, then XFS_IFORK_SIZE and ifp->if_bytes
are identical when the fork is in extent format. If there are
delalloc extents, then XFS_IFORK_SIZE() is the one we want. Hence I
don't think we need to even consider the value of ifp->if_bytes at
all here....

Cheers,

Dave.
