Firstly, pass handle to all ext4_fc_track_* functions and use
transaction id found in handle->h_transaction->h_tid for tracking fast
commit updates. Secondly, don't pass inode to
ext4_fc_track_link/create/unlink functions. inode can be found inside
these functions as d_inode(dentry). However, rename path is an
exeception. That's because in that case, we need inode that's not same
as d_inode(dentry). To handle that, add a couple of low-level wrapper
functions that take inode and dentry as arguments.

If inode gets evicted due to memory pressure, we have to remove it
from the fast commit list. However, that inode may have uncommitted
changes that fast commits will lose. So, just fall back to full
commits in this case. Also, rename the fast commit ineligiblity reason
from "EXT4_FC_REASON_MEM" to "EXT4_FC_REASON_MEM_NOMEM" for better
expression.

This patch adds fast commit recovery path support for Ext4 file
system. We add several helper functions that are similar in spirit to
e2fsprogs journal recovery path handlers. Example of such functions
include - a simple block allocator, idempotent block bitmap update
function etc. Using these routines and the fast commit log in the fast
commit area, the recovery path (ext4_fc_replay()) performs fast commit
log recovery.

This patch adds main fast commit commit path handlers. The overall
patch can be divided into two inter-related parts:
(A) Metadata updates tracking
This part consists of helper functions to track changes that need
to be committed during a commit operation. These updates are
maintained by Ext4 in different in-memory queues. Following are
the APIs and their short description that are implemented in this
patch:
- ext4_fc_track_link/unlink/creat() - Track unlink. link and creat
operations
- ext4_fc_track_range() - Track changed logical block offsets
inodes
- ext4_fc_track_inode() - Track inodes
- ext4_fc_mark_ineligible() - Mark file system fast commit
ineligible()
- ext4_fc_start_update() / ext4_fc_stop_update() /
ext4_fc_start_ineligible() / ext4_fc_stop_ineligible() These
functions are useful for co-ordinating inode updates with
commits.
(B) Main commit Path
This part consists of functions to convert updates tracked in
in-memory data structures into on-disk commits. Function
ext4_fc_commit() is the main entry point to commit path.

This patch adds fast commit area trackers in the journal_t
structure. These are initialized via the jbd2_fc_init() routine that
this patch adds. This patch also adds ext4/fast_commit.c and
ext4/fast_commit.h files for fast commit code that will be added in
subsequent patches in this series.
