Thanks for working on the review comments. The purpose of functions and
structures are much clear now. Also the approach of including
mballoc-test.c within #ifdef macros inside mballoc.c looks ok to me.

Nice work in getting this ready!
ext4_mb_new_blocks_simple() is a good first start (even though as of now
it is a simple allocator for fast commit replay path)
