    ext4: Don't allow lg prealloc list to be grow large. · 6be2ded1

    Currently, the locality group prealloc list is freed only when there
    is a block allocation failure. This can result in large number of
    entries in the preallocation list making ext4_mb_use_preallocated()
    expensive.
    
    To fix this, we convert the locality group prealloc list to a hash
    list. The hash index is the order of number of blocks in the prealloc
    space with a max order of 9. When adding prealloc space to the list we
    make sure total entries for each order does not exceed 8. If it is
    more than 8 we discard few entries and make sure the we have only <= 5
    entries.
