ext4: add prefetch_block_bitmaps mount option
For file systems where we can afford to keep the buddy bitmaps cached,
we can speed up initial writes to large file systems by starting to
load the block allocation bitmaps as soon as the file system is
mounted. This won't work well for _super_ large file systems, or
memory constrained systems, so we only enable this when it is
requested via a mount option.
