Yeah, it looks more reasonable. But from the original scene, the
xfs_bmap_extsize_align() aligned the new extent that added to the cow fork
could overlaps the unreflinked range, IIUC, I guess that spare range is
useless exactly, is there any situation that would use it?

Yeah, I think it's okay now unless there's some strong claims.
