I think this patch should be split into more, there are several logical
changes mixed together.

I can add the patch to for-next to see if there are any problems caught
by the existing test, but will expect more revisions of the patch. I
don't see any fundamental problems so far.

Suggested changes:
* factor out __btrfs_extent_same
* adjust parameters if needed by the followup patches
* add the chunk counting logic
* any other cleanups
