This flag is simply a generic "this is a crash/burn test filesystem"
marker. If it is set, then filesystem code which is "in development"
will be allowed to mount the filesystem. Filesystem code which is not
considered ready for prime-time will check for this flag, and if it is
not set, it will refuse to touch the filesystem.
As we start rolling ext4 out to distro's like Fedora, et. al, this makes
it less likely that a user might accidentally start using ext4 on a
production filesystem; a bad thing, since that will essentially make it
be unfsckable until e2fsprogs catches up.

Multiblock allocator calls BUG_ON in many case if the free and used
blocks count obtained looking at the bitmap is different from what
the allocator internally accounted for. Use ext4_error in such case
and don't panic the system.

struct ext4_allocation_context is rather large, and this bloats
the stack of many functions which use it. Allocating it from
a named slab cache will alleviate this.
For example, with this change (on top of the noinline patch sent earlier):
-ext4_mb_new_blocks 200
+ext4_mb_new_blocks 40
-ext4_mb_free_blocks 344
+ext4_mb_free_blocks 168
-ext4_mb_release_inode_pa 216
+ext4_mb_release_inode_pa 40
-ext4_mb_release_group_pa 192
+ext4_mb_release_group_pa 24
Most of these stack-allocated structs are actually used only for
mballoc history; and in those cases often a smaller struct would do.
So changing that may be another way around it, at least for those
functions, if preferred. For now, in those cases where the ac
is only for history, an allocation failure simply skips the history
recording, and does not cause any other failures.

We cannot start transaction in ext4_direct_IO() and just let it last
during the whole write because dio_get_page() acquires mmap_sem which
ranks above transaction start (e.g. because we have dependency chain
mmap_sem->PageLock->journal_start, or because we update atime while
holding mmap_sem) and thus deadlocks could happen. We solve the problem
by starting a transaction separately for each ext4_get_block() call.
We *could* have a problem that we allocate a block and before its data
are written out the machine crashes and thus we expose stale data. But
that does not happen because for hole-filling generic code falls back to
buffered writes and for file extension, we add inode to orphan list and
thus in case of crash, journal replay will truncate inode back to the
original size.

In order to prevent a circular locking dependency when an unlink
operation is racing with an ext4 migration, we delay taking i_data_sem
until just before switch the inode format, and use i_mutex to prevent
writes and truncates during the first part of the migration operation.

The ext3 root inode was treated specially with respect
to in-inode extended attributes, for reasons detailed
in the removed comment below. The first mkfs-created
inodes would not get extra_i_size or the EXT3_STATE_XATTR
flag set in ext3_read_inode, which disallowed reading or
setting in-inode EAs on the root.
However, in ext4, ext4_mark_inode_dirty calls
ext4_expand_extra_isize for all inodes; once this is done
EAs may be placed in the root ext4 inode body.
But for reasons above, it won't be found after a reboot.
testcase:
setfattr -n user.name -v value mntpt/
setfattr -n user.name2 -v value2 mntpt/
umount mntpt/; remount mntpt/
getfattr -d mntpt/
name2/value2 has gone missing; debugfs shows it in the
inode body, but it is not found there by getattr.
The following fixes it up; newer mkfs appears to properly
zero the inodes, so this workaround isn't needed for ext4.

Stop the EXT4 filesystem from using iget() and read_inode(). Replace
ext4_read_inode() with ext4_iget(), and call that instead of iget().
ext4_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
instead of an inode in the event of an error.
ext4_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.

Simplify page cache zeroing of segments of pages through 3 functions
zero_user_segments(page, start1, end1, start2, end2)
Zeros two segments of the page. It takes the position where to
start and end the zeroing which avoids length calculations and
makes code clearer.
zero_user_segment(page, start, end)
Same for a single segment.
zero_user(page, start, length)
Length variant for the case where we know the length.
We remove the zero_user_page macro. Issues:
1. Its a macro. Inline functions are preferable.
2. The KM_USER0 macro is only defined for HIGHMEM.
Having to treat this special case everywhere makes the
code needlessly complex. The parameter for zeroing is always
KM_USER0 except in one single case that we open code.
Avoiding KM_USER0 makes a lot of code not having to be dealing
with the special casing for HIGHMEM anymore. Dealing with
kmap is only necessary for HIGHMEM configurations. In those
configurations we use KM_USER0 like we do for a series of other
functions defined in highmem.h.
Since KM_USER0 is depends on HIGHMEM the existing zero_user_page
function could not be a macro. zero_user_* functions introduced
here can be be inline because that constant is not used when these
functions are called.
Also extract the flushing of the caches to be outside of the kmap.

ext4 uses the high bit of the extent length to encode whether the extent
is intialized or not. The helper function ext4_ext_get_actual_len should
be used to get the actual length of the extent.

This patch adds 64-bit inode version support to ext4. The lower 32 bits
are stored in the osd1.linux1.l_i_version field while the high 32 bits
are stored in the i_version_hi field newly created in the ext4_inode.
This field is incremented in case the ext4_inode is large enough. A
i_version mount option has been added to enable the feature.
