Although this will be evaluated as true due to the new_end having at
least the minimum data, it points out that MA_STATE_BULK is not being
evaluated correctly in the new_end < min case.

That is, we will rebalance if we are in MA_STATE_BULK mode without
meeting the sufficient data mark - which is not correct.
