The decision is made by comparing the size of the extent with the configurable value s_extent_max_zeroout_kb which is in kibibytes units. However when converting it to number of blocks we currently use it as it was in bytes. This is obviously bug and it will result in ext4 _never_ zeroout extents, but rather always split and convert parts to initialized while leaving the rest uninitialized in default setting. Fix this by using s_extent_max_zeroout_kb as kibibytes.
