I was monitoring the progress of a distributed download program, and saw
the following output from two runs of filefrag taken a few seconds
apart:

   8     790  8825663  8825551     65 
   9     855        0  8825727    319 unknown,delalloc
  10    1174  8798367      318    128 

   7     790  8825663  8825559     69 
   8    1174  8798367  8825731    128 

The length of the delalloc extent, 319, is bogus.  The 319 seems to come
from 1174 - 855.   But it's not actually the number of delayed
allocation blocks, as we can see when the blocks finally get written;
apparently it was only 4 blocks long.

I don't have time to try to track this down just now, and it's not all
that serious a bug since delalloc regions are by definition highly
transient, but it does look like we have a bug here.
