I don't think this is a new logic change, as we start at fbno
already (both in the existing code and with your patch), but we got
here because that block did not contain a suitable free space.

That being said with the reverse search in the next patch the + 1
is pointless as that code changes again.  But many of the other changes
in this patch or your next patch (which I hadn't looked at yet when
I did this) should probably be in this one, otherwise we just create
churn.
