I got a little confused.... I did not see any delayed allocation code in your patch, I assume you have to update ext3_prepare_write to not call ext3_get_block, so that block allocation will be defered at ext3_writepages time. So without the delayed allocation part, the get_blocks in mpage_writepages is doing multiple blocks look up only, right?
