Enhance the inode allocator to take a goal inode number as a
paremeter; if it is specified, it takes precedence over Orlov or
parent directory inode allocation algorithms.
The extents migration function uses the goal inode number so that the
extent trees allocated the migration function use the correct flex_bg.
In the future, the goal inode functionality will also be used to
allocate an adjacent inode for the extended attributes.
Also, for testing purposes the goal inode number can be specified via
/sys/fs/{dev}/inode_goal. This can be useful for testing inode
allocation beyond 2^32 blocks on very large filesystems.

Description:
|

Files which have fewer blocks than this tunable

parameter will have their blocks allocated out of a

block group specific preallocation pool, so that small

|
files are packed closely together. Each large file
|
|
will have its blocks allocated out of its own unique

preallocation pool.
