 /*
+ * xfs_inode_item_format_extents - convert in-core extents to on-disk form
+ *
+ * For either the data or attr fork in extent format, we need to endian convert
+ * the in-core extent as we place them into the on-disk inode. In this case, we
+ * need to do this conversion before we write the extents into the log. Because
+ * we don't have the disk inode to write into here, we allocate a buffer and
+ * format the extents into it via xfs_iextents_copy(). We free the buffer in
+ * the unlock routine after the copy for the log has been made.
+ *
+ * In the case of the data fork, the in-core and on-disk fork sizes can be
+ * different due to delayed allocation extents. We only log on-disk extents
+ * here, so always use the physical fork size to determine the size of the
+ * buffer we need to allocate.
