If we have
|0--hole--4095||4096--preallocate--12287|
instead of using preallocated space, a 8K direct write will just
create a new 8K extent and it'll end up with
|0--new extent--8191||8192--preallocate--12287|
It's because we find a hole em and then go to create a new 8K
extent directly without adjusting @len.
