While adding self tests for my space index change I was hitting a problem where the space indexed tree wasn't returning the expected ->max_extent_size. This is because we will skip searching any entry that doesn't have ->bytes >= the amount of bytes we want. However we'll still set the max_extent_size based on that entry. The problem is if we don't search the bitmap we won't have ->max_extent_size set properly, so we can't really trust it. This doesn't really result in a problem per-se, it can just result in us not finding contiguous area that may exist. Fix the max_extent_size helper to return ->bytes if ->max_extent_size isn't set, and add a big comment explaining why we're doing this.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
