Hello!

This patch series is the part 3 prepartory changes of the buffered IO
iomap conversion, it simplify the counting and updating logic of delalloc
reserved blocks. I picked them out from my buffered IO iomap conversion
RFC series v4[1], and did some minor change log messages improvement.
It's based on the part 2 prepartory series [2] (not merged yet) +
6.10-rc1.

Patch 1-3 simplify the delalloc extent management logic by changes to
always set EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE flag when allocating
preallocated blocks, and don't add EXTENT_STATUS_DELAYED flag to an
unwritten extent, which means ext4_es_is_delayed() is equal to
ext4_es_is_delonly().

Patch 4-6 simplify the reserved blocks updating logic by moves the
reserved blocks updating from ext4_{ind|ext}_map_blocks() to
ext4_es_insert_extent().

Patch 7-10 drop the unused code (e.g. ext4_es_is_delonly())and update
comments.

This series has passed through kvm-xfstests in auto mode many times,
please take a look at it.
