Um...
*cluster_to_move* is not only used for reserving data clusters.
It is also an effecting input for calculating if existed extents still have enough free records for later
tree operation like attaching clusters to extents.

Please refer to below code:
175 unsigned int max_recs_needed = 2 * extents_to_split + clusters_to_move;

Like my preceding elaboration, it is used for telling if we need more extents.
Anyway, I think we must keep *cluster_to_move* here as it used to. :-)

IC. It is a bit odd that calculate it here but do the real reserve out.
