Comments here need nearest/next fixing as well - otherwise the ext[34] crew may actually implement the commented semantics. ;)
Other than that, patch 1/2 looks OK to me (not that there's much code to review), and 2/2 *seems* sane and implement the "next" semantics, though I only examined the while/if structure and am assuming the btrfs innards are done correctly. In particular, that 'while (1)' looks like it can be painful for a sufficiently large and fragmented file (think a gigabyte file in 4K chunks, producing a million extents), but I'll let a btrfs expert analyse that performance issue ;)
