With the commit 3be2be0a32c18b0fd6d623cda63174a332ca0de1 we removed vmtruncate,
but actaully there is no need to call inode_newsize_ok() because the checks are
already done in inode_change_ok() at the begin of the function.

Currently we only reserve space (data+metadata) in delayed allocation if
we're allocating from new cluster (which is always in non-bigalloc file
system) which is ok for data blocks, because we reserve the whole cluster.
However we have to reserve metadata for every delayed block we're going
to write because every block could potentially require metedata block
when we need to grow the extent tree.

Currently in ext4_ext_map_blocks() in delayed allocation writeback
we would update the reservation and after that check whether we claimed
cluster outside of the range of the allocation and if so, we'll give the
block back to the reservation pool.
However this also means that if the number of reserved data block
dropped to zero before the correction, we would release all the metadata
reservation as well, however we might still need it because the we're
not done with the delayed allocation and there might be more blocks to
come. This will result in error messages such as:
EXT4-fs warning (device sdb): ext4_da_update_reserve_space:361: ino 12,
allocated 1 with only 0 reserved metadata blocks (releasing 1 blocks
with reserved 1 data blocks)
This will only happen on bigalloc file system and it can be easily
reproduced using fiemap-tester from xfstests like this:
./src/fiemap-tester -m DHDHDHDHD -S -p0 /mnt/test/file
Or using xfstests such as 225.
Fix this by doing the correction first and updating the reservation
after that so that we do not accidentally decrease
i_reserved_data_blocks to zero.

ext4_releasepage() warns when it is passed a page with PageChecked set.
However this can correctly happen when invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
invalidates pages - and we should fail the release in that case. Since
the page was dirty anyway, it won't be discarded and no harm has
happened but it's good to be safe. Also remove bogus page_has_buffers()
check - we are guaranteed page has buffers in this function.

This commit fixes a wrong return value of the number of the allocated
blocks in ext4_split_extent. When the length of blocks we want to
allocate is greater than the length of the current extent, we return a
wrong number. Let's see what happens in the following case when we
call ext4_split_extent().
map: [48, 72]
ex: [32, 64, u]
'ex' will be split into two parts:
ex1: [32, 47, u]
ex2: [48, 64, w]
'map->m_len' is returned from this function, and the value is 24. But
the real length is 16. So it should be fixed.
Meanwhile in this commit we use right length of the allocated blocks
when get_reserved_cluster_alloc in ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents
is called.

When we try to split an extent, this extent could be zeroed out and mark
as initialized. But we don't know this in ext4_map_blocks because it
only returns a length of allocated extent. Meanwhile we will mark this
extent as uninitialized because we only check m_flags.
This commit update extent status tree when we try to split an unwritten
extent. We don't need to worry about the status of this extent because
we always mark it as initialized.

The ext4_ext_handle_uninitialized_extents() function was assuming the
return value of ext4_ext_map_blocks() is equal to map->m_len. This
incorrect assumption was harmless until we started use status tree as
a extent cache because we need to update status tree according to
'm_len' value.
Meanwhile this commit marks EXT4_MAP_MAPPED flag after unwritten extent
conversion. It shouldn't cause a bug because we update status tree
according to checking EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN flag. But it should be fixed.
After applied this commit, the following error message from self-testing
infrastructure disappears.

xfs_bmap.c is a big file, and some of the related code is spread all
throughout the file requiring function prototypes for static
function and jumping all through the file to follow a single call
path. Rearrange the code so that:
a) related functionality is grouped together; and
b) functions are grouped in call dependency order
While the diffstat is large, there are no code changes in the patch;
it is just moving the functionality around and removing the function
prototypes at the top of the file. The resulting layout of the code
is as follows (top of file to bottom):
- miscellaneous helper functions
- extent tree block counting routines
- debug/sanity checking code
- bmap free list manipulation functions
- inode fork format manipulation functions
- internal/external extent tree seach functions
- extent tree manipulation functions used during allocation
- functions used during extent read/allocate/removal
operations (i.e. xfs_bmapi_write, xfs_bmapi_read,
xfs_bunmapi and xfs_getbmap)
This means that following logic paths through the bmapi code is much
simpler - most of the code relevant to a specific operation is now
clustered together rather than spread all over the file....

The updated speculative preallocation algorithm for handling sparse
files can becomes less effective in situations with a high number of
concurrent, sequential writers. The number of writers and amount of
available RAM affect the writeback bandwidth slicing algorithm,
which in turn affects the block allocation pattern of XFS. For
example, running 32 sequential writers on a system with 32GB RAM,
preallocs become fixed at a value of around 128MB (instead of
steadily increasing to the 8GB maximum as sequential writes
proceed).
Update the speculative prealloc heuristic to base the size of the
next prealloc on double the size of the preceding extent. This
preserves the original aggressive speculative preallocation
behavior and continues to accomodate sparse files at a slight cost
of increasing the size of preallocated data regions following holes
of sparse files.

The delayed inode code batches up changes to the btree in hopes of doing
them in bulk. As the changes build up, processes kick off worker
threads and wait for them to make progress.
The current code kicks off an async work queue item for each delayed
node, which creates a lot of churn. It also uses a fixed 1 HZ waiting
period for the throttle, which allows us to build a lot of pending
work and can slow down the commit.
This changes us to watch a sequence counter as it is bumped during the
operations. We kick off fewer work items and have each work item do
more work.

We had a recent fix to fix the release of pagecache pages when
cifs_writev_requeue writes fail. Unfortunately, it releases the page
before trying to unlock it. At that point, the page might be gone by the
time the unlock comes in.
Unlock the page first before checking the value of "rc", and only then
end writeback and release the pages. The page lock isn't required for
any of those operations so this should be safe.

Commit 24542bf7ea5e4fdfdb5157ff544c093fa4dcb536 changed preallocation of
extents to cap the max size we try to allocate. It's a valid change,
but the extent reservation code is also used by balance, and that
can't tolerate a smaller extent being allocated.
__btrfs_prealloc_file_range already has a min_size parameter, which is
used by relocation to request a specific extent size. This commit

There are several bugs at error path of create_snapshot() when the
transaction commitment failed.
- access the freed transaction handler. At the end of the
transaction commitment, the transaction handler was freed, so we
should not access it after the transaction commitment.
- we were not aware of the error which happened during the snapshot
creation if we submitted a async transaction commitment.
- pending snapshot access vs pending snapshot free. when something
wrong happened after we submitted a async transaction commitment,
the transaction committer would cleanup the pending snapshots and
free them. But the snapshot creators were not aware of it, they
would access the freed pending snapshots.
This patch fixes the above problems by:
- remove the dangerous code that accessed the freed handler
- assign ->error if the error happens during the snapshot creation
- the transaction committer doesn't free the pending snapshots,
just assigns the error number and evicts them before we unblock
the transaction.

Derived from Jan's patch:http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.ext4/36470
Merging of uninitialized extents creates all sorts of interesting race
possibilities when writeback / DIO races with fallocate. Thus
ext4_convert_unwritten_extents_endio() has to deal with a case where
extent to be converted needs to be split out first. That isn't nice
for two reasons:
1) It may need allocation of extent tree block so ENOSPC is possible.
2) It complicates end_io handling code
So we disable merging of uninitialized extents which allows us to simplify
the code. Extents will get merged after they are converted to initialized
ones.

When ext4_split_extent_at() ends up doing zeroout & conversion to
initialized instead of split & conversion, ext4_split_extent() gets
confused and can wrongly mark the extent back as uninitialized
resulting in end IO code getting confused from large unwritten extents
and may result in data loss.
The example of problematic behavior is:
lblk len lblk len
ext4_split_extent() (ex=[1000,30,uninit], map=[1010,10])
ext4_split_extent_at() (split [1000,30,uninit] at 1020)
ext4_ext_insert_extent() -> ENOSPC
ext4_ext_zeroout()
-> extent [1000,30] is now initialized
ext4_split_extent_at() (split [1000,30,init] at 1010,
MARK_UNINIT1 | MARK_UNINIT2)
-> extent is split and parts marked as uninitialized
Fix the problem by rechecking extent type after the first
ext4_split_extent_at() returns. None of split_flags can not be applied
to initialized extent so this patch also add BUG_ON to prevent similar
issues in future.
