The SZ_256M will cause trouble in platform with less than 256M memory.
For example, a qemu virtual machine.

If you have actually taken the care to understand the code in
test_find_delalloc you would have seen that total_dirty and max_bytes
are actually inter-dependent so you cannot really change total_bytes
without adjusting max_bytes as well. Otherwise tests will start breaking.

NACK on this (and likely any future postings of this) since the tests
are sized in a such a way so as to test design limits (such as the max
extent size which is 128MB)

Nowadays even for VM, the memory size should start from 2G.
If this 256M is causing problem, one should really re-consider the
memory size of the VM.

Not to mention the magic number is two ensure we have at least 2 file
extents.

And we should add some comment about this.

Personally I prefer some comment with this and also use (2 *
BTRFS_MAX_EXTENT_SIZE) other than this intermediate number.

Thanks,
