With dax enabled filesystems, a direct write operation into an existing
unwritten extent results in xfs_iomap_write_direct() zero-ing and converting
the extent into a normal extent before the actual data is copied from the
userspace buffer.
The inode extent count can increase by 2 if the extent range being written to
maps to the middle of the existing unwritten extent range. Hence this commit
uses XFS_IEXT_WRITE_UNWRITTEN_CNT as the extent count delta when such a write
operation is being performed.
Fixes: 727e1acd297c ("xfs: Check for extent overflow when trivally adding a new extent")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
