This looks good.

Now that the transaction pointer is available in
xfs_bmap_isaeof(), it gets used in the call to
xfs_bmap_last_extent().  It looks to me like
this means btree block buffers will be added to
and removed from the transaction's item list
in xfs_bmap_read_extents(), and that list will
be scanned for these buffers in xfs_trans_read_buf()
(unlike before).

I don't question whether that's correct, but
is that desirable?  Would we be just as well
off *not* providing the transaction pointer?

Anyway:

Here is the spot I'm referring to.
