commit 3d0518f4, "ext4: New rec_len encoding for very
large blocksizes" made several changes to this path, but from
a perf perspective, un-inlining ext4_rec_len_from_disk() seems
most significant.  This function is called from ext4_check_dir_entry(),
which on a file-creation workload is called extremely often.

I tested this with bonnie:

# bonnie++ -u root -s 0 -f -x 200 -d /mnt/test -n 32

(this does 200 iterations) and got this for the file creations:

ext4 stock:   Average =  21206.8 files/s
ext4 inlined: Average =  22346.7 files/s  (+5%)

Commit 6b0310fb caused a regression resulting in deadlocks
when freezing a filesystem which had active IO; the vfs_check_frozen
level (SB_FREEZE_WRITE) did not let the freeze-related IO syncing
through.  Duh.

Changing the test to FREEZE_TRANS should let the normal freeze
syncing get through the fs, but still block any transactions from
starting once the fs is completely frozen.

I tested this by running fsstress in the background while periodically
snapshotting the fs and running fsck on the result.  I ran into
occasional deadlocks, but different ones.  I think this is a
fine fix for the problem at hand, and the other deadlocky things
will need more investigation.

When journaled quota options are not specified, we do writes
to quota files just in data=ordered mode. This actually causes
warnings from JBD2 about dirty journaled buffer because ext4_getblk
unconditionally treats a block allocated by it as metadata. Since
quota actually is filesystem metadata, the easiest way to get rid
of the warning is to always treat quota writes as metadata...

For some reason, today mballoc only allocates IOs which are exactly
stripe-sized on a stripe boundary.  If you have a multiple (say, a
128k IO on a 64k stripe) you may end up unaligned.

It seems to me that a simple change to align stripe-multiple IOs
on stripe boundaries would be a very good idea, unless this breaks
some other mballoc heuristic for some reason...

This patch is to be applied upon Christoph's "direct-io: move aio_complete
into ->end_io" patch. It adds iocb and result fields to struct ext4_io_end_t,
so that we can call aio_complete from  ext4_end_io_nolock() after the extent
conversion has finished.

I have verified with Christoph's aio-dio test that used to fail after a few
runs on an original kernel but now succeeds on the patched kernel.

Filesystems with unwritten extent support must not complete an AIO request
until the transaction to convert the extent has been commited.  That means
the aio_complete calls needs to be moved into the ->end_io callback so
that the filesystem can control when to call it exactly.

This makes a bit of a mess out of dio_complete and the ->end_io callback
prototype even more complicated.

__GFP_NOFAIL is going away, so add our own retry loop.  Also add
jbd2__journal_start() and jbd2__journal_restart() which take a gfp
mask, so that file systems can optionally (re)start transaction
handles using GFP_KERNEL.  If they do this, then they need to be
prepared to handle receiving an PTR_ERR(-ENOMEM) error, and be ready
to reflect that error up to userspace.

We have experienced bitmap inconsistencies after crash during file
delete under heavy load.  The crash is not file system related and I
the following patch in ext4_free_branches() fixes the recovery
problem.

If the transaction is restarted and there is a crash before the new
transaction is committed, then after recovery, the blocks that this
indirect block points to have been freed, but the indirect block
itself has not been freed and may still point to some of the free
blocks (because of the ext4_forget()).

So ext4_forget() should be called inside ext4_free_blocks() to avoid
this problem.

But, according to the spec of the ctime, ext4 must update it.

We don't need to set s_dirt in most of the ext4 code when journaling
is enabled.  In ext3/4 some of the summary statistics for # of free
inodes, blocks, and directories are calculated from the per-block
group statistics when the file system is mounted or unmounted.  As a
result the superblock doesn't have to be updated, either via the
journal or by setting s_dirt.  There are a few exceptions, most
notably when resizing the file system, where the superblock needs to
be modified --- and in that case it should be done as a journalled
operation if possible, and s_dirt set only in no-journal mode.

This patch will optimize out some unneeded disk writes when using ext4
with a journal.
