Online resize ioctls 'EXT4_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND' and 'EXT4_IOC_GROUP_ADD'
call ext4_resize_begin() to check permissions and to set the
EXT4_RESIZING bit lock, they do their work and they must finish with
ext4_resize_end() which calls clear_bit_unlock() to unlock and to
avoid -EBUSY errors for the next resize operations.
This patch adds the missing ext4_resize_end() calls on error paths.
Patch tested.

This patch adds new online resize interface, whose input argument is a
64-bit integer indicating how many blocks there are in the resized fs.
In new resize impelmentation, all work like allocating group tables
are done by kernel side, so the new resize interface can support
flex_bg feature and prepares ground for suppoting resize with features
like bigalloc and exclude bitmap. Besides these, user-space tools just
passes in the new number of blocks.
We delay initializing the bitmaps and inode tables of added groups if
possible and add multi groups (a flex groups) each time, so new resize
is very fast like mkfs.

ext4_{set,clear}_bit() is defined as __test_and_{set,clear}_bit_le() for
ext4. Only two ext4_{set,clear}_bit() calls check the return value. The
rest of calls ignore the return value and they can be replaced with
__{set,clear}_bit_le().
This changes ext4_{set,clear}_bit() from __test_and_{set,clear}_bit_le()
to __{set,clear}_bit_le() and introduces ext4_test_and_{set,clear}_bit()
for the two places where old bit needs to be returned.
This ext4_{set,clear}_bit() change is considered safe, because if someone
uses these macros without noticing the change, new ext4_{set,clear}_bit
don't have return value and causes compiler errors where the return value
is used.
This also removes unused ext4_find_first_zero_bit().

It's necessary to flush the journal when switching away from
data=journal mode. This is because there are no revoke records when
data blocks are journalled, but revoke records are required in the
other journal modes.
However, it is not necessary to flush the journal when switching into
data=journal mode, and flushing the journal is expensive. So let's
avoid it in that case.

In the code to support EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT, ext4_ioctl calls
file_remove_suid() after the call to ext4_move_extents() if any
extents has been moved. There are at least three things wrong with
this. First, file_remove_suid() should be called with i_mutex down,
which is not here. Second, it should be called before the donor file
has been modified, to avoid a potential race condition. Third, and
most importantly, it's pointless, because ext4_file_extents() already
checks if the donor file has the setuid or setgid bit set, and will
return an error in that case. So the first two objections don't
really matter, since file_remove_suid() will never need to modify the
inode in any case.

We found performance regression when using bigalloc with "nodelalloc"
(1MB cluster size):
1. mke2fs -C 1048576 -O ^has_journal,bigalloc /dev/sda
2. mount -o nodelalloc /dev/sda /test/
3. time dd if=/dev/zero of=/test/io bs=1048576 count=1024
The "dd" will cost about 2 seconds to finish, but if we mke2fs without
"bigalloc", "dd" will only cost less than 1 second.
The reason is: when using ext4 with "nodelalloc", it will call
ext4_find_delalloc_cluster() nearly everytime it call
ext4_ext_map_blocks(), and ext4_find_delalloc_range() will also scan
all pages in cluster because no buffer is "delayed". A cluster has
256 pages (1MB cluster), so it will scan 256 * 256k pags when creating
a 1G file. That severely hurts the performance.
Therefore, we return immediately from ext4_find_delalloc_range() in
nodelalloc mode, since by definition there can't be any delalloc
pages.

When insert_inode_locked() fails in ext4_new_inode() it most likely means inode
bitmap got corrupted and we allocated again inode which is already in use. Also
doing unlock_new_inode() during error recovery is wrong since the inode does
not have I_NEW set. Fix the problem by jumping to fail: (instead of fail_drop:)
which declares filesystem error and does not call unlock_new_inode().

If the pte mapping in generic_perform_write() is unmapped between
iov_iter_fault_in_readable() and iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic(), the
"copied" parameter to ->end_write can be zero. ext4 couldn't cope with
it with delayed allocations enabled. This skips the i_disksize
enlargement logic if copied is zero and no new data was appeneded to
the inode.

This is 100% reproducible with some autonuma development code tuned in
a very aggressive manner (not normal way even for knumad) which does
"exotic" changes to the ptes. It wouldn't normally trigger but I don't
see why it can't happen normally if the page is added to swap cache in
between the two faults leading to "copied" being zero (which then
hangs in ext4). So it should be fixed. Especially possible with lumpy
reclaim (albeit disabled if compaction is enabled) as that would
ignore the young bits in the ptes.

however, io_end->work calls aio_complete() which frees the iocb

can end up clearing someone else's iocb->private, this use-after-free
can cause a leak of a struct ext4_io_end_t structure.

If an fallocate request fits in EXT_UNINIT_MAX_LEN, then set the
EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_NO_NORMALIZE flag. For larger fallocate requests,
let mballoc.c normalize the request.
This fixes a problem where large requests were being split into
non-contiguous extents due to commit 556b27abf7: ext4: do not
normalize block requests from fallocate.
Testing:
*) Checked that 8.x MB falloc'ed files are still laid down next to
each other (contiguously).
*) Checked that the maximum size extent (127.9MB) is allocated as 1
extent.
*) Checked that a 1GB file is somewhat contiguous (often 5-6
non-contiguous extents now).
*) Checked that a 120MB file can still be falloc'ed even if there are
no single extents large enough to hold it.
