If a filesystem writes more than one page in ->writepage, write_cache_pages
fails to notice this and continues to attempt writeback when wbc->nr_to_write
has gone negative - this trace was captured from XFS:

    wbc_writeback_start: towrt=1024
    wbc_writepage: towrt=1024
    wbc_writepage: towrt=0
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-1
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-5
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-21
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-85

This has adverse effects on filesystem writeback behaviour. write_cache_pages()
needs to terminate after a certain number of pages are written, not after a
certain number of calls to ->writepage are made.  This is a regression
introduced by 17bc6c30 ("vfs: Add
no_nrwrite_index_update writeback control flag"), but cannot be reverted
directly due to subsequent bug fixes that have gone in on top of it.

Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from
ext4_free_blocks().  This simplifies the code in a large number of
places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into
a single place.

Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling
ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the
conversion.  As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after
the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as
data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks.  With
this new patch, fixing this bug was as simple as adding the
EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET flags to the call to ext4_free_blocks().

The tracepoint ext4_da_write_pages has a struct mpage_da_data*
parameter, but that struct is only defined in fs/ext4/ext4.h.  This
patch adds a forward declaration for that struct, so this tracepoint
header can still be used by tools like SystemTap.

This is a continuation of the fix in commit 3661d286.

The /proc/fs/ext4/<dev>/mb_history was maintained manually, and had a
number of problems: it required a largish amount of memory to be
allocated for each ext4 filesystem, and the s_mb_history_lock
introduced a CPU contention problem.  

By ripping out the mb_history code and replacing it with ftrace
tracepoints, and we get more functionality: timestamps, event
filtering, the ability to correlate mballoc history with other ext4
tracepoints, etc.

Work around problems in the writeback code to force out writebacks in
larger chunks than just 4mb, which is just too small.  This also works
around limitations in the ext4 block allocator, which can't allocate
more than 2048 blocks at a time.  So we need to defeat the round-robin
characteristics of the writeback code and try to write out as many
blocks in one inode before allowing the writeback code to move on to
another inode.  We add a a new per-filesystem tunable,
max_writeback_mb_bump, which caps this to a default of 128mb per
inode.

Using relative pathnames in #include statements interacts badly with
SystemTap, since the fs/ext4/*.h header files are not packaged up as
part of a distribution kernel's header files.  Since systemtap doesn't
use TP_fast_assign(), we can use a blind structure definition and then
make sure the needed header files are defined before the ext4 source
files #include the trace/events/ext4.h header file.

Unlike on some other architectures ino_t is an unsigned int on s390.
So add an explicit cast to avoid lots of compile warnings:

If TRACE_INCLDUE_FILE is defined, <trace/events/TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE.h>
will be included and compiled, otherwise it will be
<trace/events/TRACE_SYSTEM.h>

So TRACE_SYSTEM should be defined outside of #if proctection,
just like TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE.

Imaging this scenario:

 #include <trace/events/foo.h>
    -> TRACE_SYSTEM == foo
 ...
 #include <trace/events/bar.h>
    -> TRACE_SYSTEM == bar
 ...
 #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
 #include <trace/events/foo.h>
    -> TRACE_SYSTEM == bar !!!

and then bar.h will be included and compiled.
