8f82f840ec ext4: prevent parallel resizers by atomic bit ops
Before this patch, parallel resizers are allowed and protected by a
mutex lock, actually, there is no need to support parallel resizer, so
this patch prevents parallel resizers by atmoic bit ops, like
lock_page() and unlock_page() do.

To do this, the patch removed the mutex lock s_resize_lock from struct
ext4_sb_info and added a unsigned long field named s_resize_flags
which inidicates if there is a resizer.

2d859db3e4 ext4: fix data corruption in inodes with journalled data
When journalling data for an inode (either because it is a symlink or
because the filesystem is mounted in data=journal mode), ext4_evict_inode()
can discard unwritten data by calling truncate_inode_pages(). This is
because we don't mark the buffer / page dirty when journalling data but only
add the buffer to the running transaction and thus mm does not know there
are still unwritten data.

Fix the problem by carefully tracking transaction containing inode's data,
committing this transaction, and writing uncheckpointed buffers when inode
should be reaped.

d46203159e ext4: avoid eh_entries overflow before insert extent_idx
If eh_entries is equal to (or greater than) eh_max, the operation of
inserting new extent_idx will make number of entries overflow.
So check eh_entries before inserting the new extent_idx.

Although there is no bug case according the code (function
ext4_ext_insert_index is called by ext4_ext_split and ext4_ext_split
is called only if the index block has free space), the right logic
should be "lookup the capacity before insertion".

This patch avoids an extraneous lookup of the extent cache
in ext4_ext_map_blocks() when the flag
EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_PUNCH_OUT_EXT is absent.

The existing logic was performing the lookup but not making
use of the result. The patch simply reverses the order of evaluation
in the condition.

Since ext4_ext_in_cache() does not initialize newex on misses, bypassing
its invocation does not introduce any new issue in this regard.

s_orphan_lock.

3d56b8d2c7 ext4: Speed up FITRIM by recording flags in ext4_group_info
In ext4, when FITRIM is called every time, we iterate all the
groups and do trim one by one. It is a bit time wasting if the
group has been trimmed and there is no change since the last
trim.

So this patch adds a new flag in ext4_group_info->bb_state to
indicate that the group has been trimmed, and it will be cleared
if some blocks is freed(in release_blocks_on_commit). Another
trim_minlen is added in ext4_sb_info to record the last minlen
we use to trim the volume, so that if the caller provide a small
one, we will go on the trim regardless of the bb_state.

A simple test with my intel x25m ssd:
df -h shows:
/dev/sdb1              40G   21G   17G  56% /mnt/ext4
Block size:               4096

run the FITRIM with the following parameter:
range.start = 0;
range.len = UINT64_MAX;
range.minlen = 1048576;

without the patch:
[root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a
real	0m5.505s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m1.224s

[root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a
real	0m5.228s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m1.151s

with the patch:
[root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a
real	0m5.625s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m1.269s

[root@boyu-tm linux-2.6]# time ./ftrim /mnt/ext4/a
real	0m0.002s
user	0m0.000s
sys	0m0.001s

A big improvement for the 2nd and 3rd run.

Even after I delete some big image files, it is still much
faster than iterating the whole disk.

169ddc3ec8 ext4: speed up group trim with the right free block count
When we trim some free blocks in a group of ext4, we need to 
calculate the free blocks properly and check whether there are
enough freed blocks left for us to trim. Current solution will
only calculate free spaces if they are large for a trim which
isn't appropriate.

Let us see a small example:
a group has 1.5M free which are 300k, 300k, 300k, 300k, 300k.
And minblocks is 1M.  With current solution, we have to iterate
the whole group since these 300k will never be subtracted from
1.5M.  But actually we should exit after we find the first 2
free spaces since the left 3 chunks only sum up to 900K if we
subtract the first 600K although they can't be trimed.

22f1045743 ext4: fix trim length underflow with small trim length
In 0f0a25b, we adjust 'len' with s_first_data_block - start, but
it could underflow in case blocksize=1K, fstrim_range.len=512 and
fstrim_range.start = 0. In this case, when we run the code:
len -= first_data_blk - start; len will be underflow to -1ULL.
In the end, although we are safe that last_group check later will limit
the trim to the whole volume, but that isn't what the user really want.

So this patch fix it. It also adds the check for 'start' like ext3 so that
we can break immediately if the start is invalid.

7132de744b ext4: fix i_blocks/quota accounting when extent insertion fails
The current implementation of ext4_free_blocks() always calls
dquot_free_block This looks quite sensible in the most cases: blocks
to be freed are associated with inode and were accounted in quota and
i_blocks some time ago.

However, there is a case when blocks to free were not accounted by the
time calling ext4_free_blocks() yet:

1. delalloc is on, write_begin pre-allocated some space in quota
2. write-back happens, ext4 allocates some blocks in ext4_ext_map_blocks()
3. then ext4_ext_map_blocks() gets an error (e.g.  ENOSPC) from
   ext4_ext_insert_extent() and calls ext4_free_blocks().

In this scenario, ext4_free_blocks() calls dquot_free_block() who, in
turn, decrements i_blocks for blocks which were not accounted yet (due
to delalloc) After clean umount, e2fsck reports something like:

> Inode 21, i_blocks is 5080, should be 5128.  Fix<y>?
because i_blocks was erroneously decremented as explained above.

The patch fixes the problem by passing the new flag
EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_NO_QUOT_UPDATE to ext4_free_blocks(), to request
that the dquot_free_block() call be skipped.

d3ad8434aa jbd2: use WRITE_SYNC in journal checkpoint
In journal checkpoint, we write the buffer and wait for its finish.
But in cfq, the async queue has a very low priority, and in our test,
if there are too many sync queues and every queue is filled up with
requests, the write request will be delayed for quite a long time and
all the tasks which are waiting for journal space will end with errors like:

INFO: task attr_set:3816 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

So this patch tries to use WRITE_SYNC in __flush_batch so that the request will
be moved into sync queue and handled by cfq timely. We also use the new plug,
sot that all the WRITE_SYNC requests can be given as a whole when we unplug it.

79568f5be0 vfs: i_state needs to be 'unsigned long' for now
Commit 13e12d14e2 ("vfs: reorganize 'struct inode' layout a bit")
moved things around a bit changed i_state to be unsigned int instead of
unsigned long.  That was to help structure layout for the 64-bit case,
and shrink 'struct inode' a bit (admittedly that only happened when
spinlock debugging was on and i_flags didn't pack with i_lock).

However, Meelis Roos reports that this results in unaligned exceptions
on sprc, and it turns out that the bit-locking primitives that we use
for the I_NEW bit want to use the bitops.  Which want 'unsigned long',
not 'unsigned int'.

We really should fix the bit locking code to not have that kind of
requirement, but that's a much bigger change.  So for now, revert that
field back to 'unsigned long' (but keep the other re-ordering changes
from the commit that caused this).

Andi points out that we have played games with this in 'struct page', so
it's solvable with other hacks too, but since right now the struct inode
size advantage only happens with some rare config options, it's not
worth fighting.

It _would_ be worth fixing the bitlocking code, though.  Especially
since there is no type safety in the bitlocking code (this never caused
any warnings, and worked fine on x86-64, because the bitlocks take a
'void *' and x86-64 doesn't care that deeply about alignment).  So it's
currently a very easy problem to trigger by mistake and never notice.
