Hmm, now I wonder about the expense of mapping many thousands of delalloc
pages, one at a time, in order to map this extent.
Could you please do a test, with as large a file as possible before it is written to disk (say 4GB == 1M pages), to see whether single-page find_get_pages_tag() is faster than kmalloc() of a PAGE_SIZE buffer and (PAGE_SIZE/sizeof(struct page *)) page pointers?
This would probably work best if the VM is tuned not to flush out dirty pages.
Otherwise, there are only minor style issues to fix up. Thanks for your work so far.

(style) operators go at the end of the previous line.

(style) continued lines should align by the parenthesis '(' on the previous line, not on a full tab.

(style) operators go at the end of the previous line, like:

+ newex->ec_len < EXT_INIT_MAX_LEN && buffer_delay(bh)) {
