The original code is broken, would not detect if th. If partialmax != 0 
(multi-stream) and no extents exist (entire file is a hole), is there 
anything to restore? Nope so why call parial_reg().  If you do call it 
you will not find anything to restore:


8977         /* If not found, find a free one, fill it in and return */
8978         if ( ! isptr ) {
8979                 mlog(MLOG_NITTY | MLOG_NOLOCK,
8980                         "partial_reg: no entry found for %llu\n", ino);
8981                 /* find a free one */
8982                 for (i=0; i < partialmax; i++ ) {
8983                         if (persp->a.parrest[i].is_ino == 0) {
8984                                 int j;
8985
8986                                 isptr = &persp->a.parrest[i];
8987                                 isptr->is_ino = ino;
8988                                 persp->a.parrestcnt++;
8989
8990                                 /* Clear all endoffsets (this value is
8991                                  * used to decide if an entry is

8993                                  */
8994                                 for (j=0, bsptr=isptr->is_bs;
8995                                      j < drivecnt; j++, bsptr++) {
8996                                      bsptr->endoffset = 0;
8997                                 }
8998
8999                                 goto found;
9000                         }
9001                 }
9002
9003                 /* Should never get here. */

And we reach the dreaded comment above :)

The check is unneeded because with my fix,  partial_reg will never be 
called if partialmax==0. Do we really need the extra check?

Sorry I thought that it was self explanatory ;)
