This new helper, defrag_one_cluster(), will defrag one cluster (at most 256K): - Collect all initial targets - Kick in readahead when possible - Call defrag_one_range() on each initial target With some extra range clamping. - Update @sectors_defragged parameter This involves one behavior change, the defragged sectors accounting is no longer as accurate as old behavior, as the initial targets are not consistent. We can have new holes punched inside the initial target, and we will skip such holes later. But the defragged sectors accounting doesn't need to be that accurate anyway, thus I don't want to pass those extra accounting burden into defrag_one_range().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
