Oh great! Thanks for looking at this Jan!

Ugh yeah I see that now. Definitely I was "going with the flow" so to speak.
I'll kill that line completely most likely. It's not really telling us a
whole lot I couldn't get from other means.

You're right though that CLONE_LEN doesn't have any reason to be there. I'm
partial to changing the sequence then:

	TLV_PUT_PATH(sctx, BTRFS_SEND_A_PATH, p);
	TLV_PUT_U64(sctx, BTRFS_SEND_A_FILE_OFFSET, offset);
	TLV_PUT_U64(sctx, BTRFS_SEND_A_SIZE, len);

Seems more sane from a readability standpoint. "Oh, this <path> had an
extent change in the range (<offset>, <len>).

Thanks again!
