Subject: [PATCH] nilfs2: move out mark_inode_dirty calls from bmap routines

Previously, nilfs_bmap_add_blocks() and nilfs_bmap_sub_blocks() called
mark_inode_dirty() after they changed the number of data blocks.

This moves these calls outside bmap outermost functions like
nilfs_bmap_insert() or nilfs_bmap_truncate().

This will mitigate overhead for truncate or delete operation since
they repeatedly remove set of blocks.  Nearly 10 percent improvement
was observed for removal of a large file:

 # dd if=/dev/zero of=/test/aaa bs=1M count=512
 # time rm /test/aaa

  real  2.968s -> 2.705s

Further optimization may be possible by eliminating these
mark_inode_dirty() uses though I avoid mixing separate changes here.
