The reversed loop makes sense, the first page is special and used for
locking the whole extent buffer's pages, as can be seen eg.
897ca6e9b4fef86d5dfb6b31 or 4f2de97acee6532b36dd6e99 . Also see current
alloc_extent_buffer for the locking and managing the private bit.
So you can still rewrite it as a for loop but would have to preserve the
logic or provide the reason that it's correct to iterate from 0 to
num_pages. There are some subltle races regarding pages and extents and
their presence in various trees, so I'd rather be careful here.

This check does seem to be redundant.

I think that the num_extent_pages(...) would be better put to a
temporary variable so it's not evaluated each time the loop termination
condition is checked.
