There have been several reports over the years of NULL pointer
dereferences in xfs_trans_log_inode during xfs_fsr processes,
when the process is doing an fput and tearing down extents
on the temporary inode, something like:

As it turns out, this is because the i_itemp pointer, along
with the d_ops pointer, has been overwritten with zeros
when we tear down the extents during truncate.  When the in-core
inode fork on the temporary inode used by xfs_fsr was originally
set up during the extent swap, we mistakenly looked at di_nextents
to determine whether all extents fit inline, but this misses extents
generated by speculative preallocation; we should be using if_bytes
instead.

This mistake corrupts the in-memory inode, and code in
xfs_iext_remove_inline eventually gets bad inputs, causing
it to memmove and memset incorrect ranges; this became apparent
because the two values in ifp->if_u2.if_inline_ext[1] contained
what should have been in d_ops and i_itemp; they were memmoved due
to incorrect array indexing and then the original locations
were zeroed with memset, again due to an array overrun.

Fix this by properly using i_df.if_bytes to determine the number
of extents, not di_nextents.

Thanks to dchinner for looking at this with me and spotting the
root cause.

Neat bug. :P The fix looks fine, but technically di_nextents doesn't
include any delalloc extents, right? From taking a quick skim through
the test case, it looks like the problematic situation is when the file
flush doesn't end up converting post-eof delalloc (created via
speculative prealloc) due to free space fragmentation.

So in other words, in most cases a file flush will convert all delalloc,
including post-eof preallocation, by virtue of being part of an extent
that is partly within file eof. In the fragmented free space situation,
however, the file flush is not necessarily guaranteed to convert all
delalloc blocks past eof, thus di_nextents is not consistent with the
in-core inode state, and badness ensues...

If I'm following that correctly it would be nice to just clarify that a
bit in the commit log. Otherwise looks good to me:

To be honest I hadn't thought it through that far.  Could modify the
testcase to free up more contiguous space prior to the last flush, perhaps,
and see what happens.
