    Will be used in the future for inode updates, which will be very helpful
    for multithreaded workloads that have to update the inode with every
    extent update (appends, or updates that change i_sectors)
    
    Also will be used eventually for fully persistent alloc info
    
    However - we still need a mechanism for reserving space in the journal
    prior to getting a journal reservation, so it's not technically safe to
    make use of this just yet, we could deadlock with the journal full
    (although not likely to be an issue in practice)
