Linus Torvalds 0b166a57e6 A lot of bug fixes and cleanups for ext4, including:
* Fix performance problems found in dioread_nolock now that it is the
   default, caused by transaction leaks.
 * Clean up fiemap handling in ext4
 * Clean up and refactor multiple block allocator (mballoc) code
 * Fix a problem with mballoc with a smaller file systems running out
   of blocks because they couldn't properly use blocks that had been
   reserved by inode preallocation.
 * Fixed a race in ext4_sync_parent() versus rename()
 * Simplify the error handling in the extent manipulation code
 * Make sure all metadata I/O errors are felected to ext4_ext_dirty()'s and
   ext4_make_inode_dirty()'s callers.
 * Avoid passing an error pointer to brelse in ext4_xattr_set()
 * Fix race which could result to freeing an inode on the dirty last
   in data=journal mode.
 * Fix refcount handling if ext4_iget() fails
 * Fix a crash in generic/019 caused by a corrupted extent node
