ext4: check for a good block group before loading buddy pages

Browse Source 
This adds a new field in ext4_group_info to cache the largest available
block range in a block group; and don't load the buddy pages until *after*
we've done a sanity check on the block group.

With large allocation requests (e.g., fallocate(), 8MiB) and relatively full
partitions, it's easy to have no block groups with a block extent large
enough to satisfy the input request length.  This currently causes the loop
during cr == 0 in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() to load the buddy bitmap pages
for EVERY block group.  That can be a lot of pages.  The patch below allows
us to call ext4_mb_good_group() BEFORE we load the buddy pages (although we
have check again after we lock the block group).
