IIRC I didn't add that max extent size for both compressed (128K) and
uncompressed (256M) because we might enlarge those values in the future.
But considering LZO is already rejecting based on MAX_COMPRESSED, I
think it's time to add such tree-checker.
Please send out the tree-checker patch, not only checking against the
max compressed size, but also uncompressed ones.

I prefer not to use u64 for length. With tree-checker it should be enough.
