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.

When we try to use file already used as a quota file again (for the same
or different quota type), strange things can happen. At the very least
lockdep annotations may be wrong but also inode flags may be wrongly set
/ reset. When the file is used for two quota types at once we can even
corrupt the file and likely crash the kernel. Catch all these cases by
checking whether passed file is already used as quota file and bail
early in that case.
This fixes occasional generic/219 failure due to lockdep complaint.

This implements journal callbacks j_submit|finish_inode_data_buffers()
with different behavior for data=journal: to write-protect pages under
commit, preventing changes to buffers writeably mapped to userspace.
If a buffer's content changes between commit's checksum calculation
and write-out to disk, it can cause journal recovery/mount failures
upon a kernel crash or power loss.

In j_submit_inode_data_buffers() we write-protect the inode's pages
with write_cache_pages() and redirty w/ writepage callback if needed.
In j_finish_inode_data_buffers() there is nothing do to.
And in order to use the callbacks, inodes are added to the inode list
in transaction in __ext4_journalled_writepage() and ext4_page_mkwrite().
In ext4_page_mkwrite() we must make sure that the buffers are attached
to the transaction as jbddirty with write_end_fn(), as already done in

These are two fixes for data journalling required by
the next patch, discovered while testing it.
First, the optimization to return early if all buffers
are mapped is not appropriate for the next patch:
The inode _must_ be added to the transaction's list in
data=journal mode (so to write-protect pages on commit)
thus we cannot return early there.
Second, once that optimization to reduce transactions
was disabled for data=journal mode, more transactions
happened, and occasionally hit this warning message:
'JBD2: Spotted dirty metadata buffer'.
Reason is, block_page_mkwrite() will set_buffer_dirty()
before do_journal_get_write_access() that is there to
prevent it. This issue was masked by the optimization.
So, on data=journal use __block_write_begin() instead.
This also requires page locking and len recalculation.
(see block_page_mkwrite() for implementation details.)
Finally, as Jan noted there is little sharing between
data=journal and other modes in ext4_page_mkwrite().
However, a prototype of ext4_journalled_page_mkwrite()
showed there still would be lots of duplicated lines
(tens of) that didn't seem worth it.
Thus this patch ends up with an ugly goto to skip all
non-data journalling code (to avoid long indentations,
but that can be changed..) in the beginning, and just
a conditional in the transaction section.
Well, we skip a common part to data journalling which
is the page truncated check, but we do it again after
ext4_journal_start() when we re-acquire the page lock
(so not to acquire the page lock twice needlessly for
data journalling.)

Introduce journal callbacks to allow different behaviors
for an inode in journal_submit|finish_inode_data_buffers().
The existing users of the current behavior (ext4, ocfs2)
are adapted to use the previously exported functions
that implement the current behavior.
Users are callers of jbd2_journal_inode_ranged_write|wait(),
which adds the inode to the transaction's inode list with
the JI_WRITE|WAIT_DATA flags. Only ext4 and ocfs2 in-tree.
Both CONFIG_EXT4_FS and CONFIG_OCSFS2_FS select CONFIG_JBD2,
which builds fs/jbd2/commit.c and journal.c that define and
export the functions, so we can call directly in ext4/ocfs2.

The previous patch add clear_buffer_verified() before we read metadata
block from disk again, but it's rather easy to miss clearing of this bit
because currently we read metadata buffer through different open codes
(e.g. ll_rw_block(), bh_submit_read() and invoke submit_bh() directly).
So, it's time to add common helpers to unify in all the places reading
metadata buffers instead. This patch add 3 helpers:
- ext4_read_bh_nowait(): async read metadata buffer if it's actually
not uptodate, clear buffer_verified bit before read from disk.
- ext4_read_bh(): sync version of read metadata buffer, it will wait
until the read operation return and check the return status.
- ext4_read_bh_lock(): try to lock the buffer before read buffer, it
will skip reading if the buffer is already locked.
After this patch, we need to use these helpers in all the places reading
metadata buffer instead of different open codes.

This happens because sbi->s_bdev_wb_err is not initialized when mounting
the filesystem in read only mode and so ext4_check_bdev_write_error()
falsely triggers.
Initialize sbi->s_bdev_wb_err unconditionally to avoid this problem.

In case if the file already has underlying blocks/extents allocated
then we don't need to start a journal txn and can directly return
the underlying mapping. Currently ext4_iomap_begin() is used by
both DAX & DIO path. We can check if the write request is an
overwrite & then directly return the mapping information.
This could give a significant perf boost for multi-threaded writes
specially random overwrites.
On PPC64 VM with simulated pmem(DAX) device, ~10x perf improvement
could be seen in random writes (overwrite). Also bcoz this optimizes
away the spinlock contention during jbd2 slab cache allocation
(jbd2_journal_handle). On x86 VM, ~2x perf improvement was observed.

The race condition could cause the persisted superblock checksum
to not match the contents of the superblock, causing the
superblock to be considered corrupt.
An example of the race follows. A first thread is interrupted in the
middle of a checksum calculation. Then, another thread changes the
superblock, calculates a new checksum, and sets it. Then, the first
thread resumes and sets the checksum based on the older superblock.
To fix, serialize the superblock checksum calculation using the buffer
header lock. While a spinlock is sufficient, the buffer header is
already there and there is precedent for locking it (e.g. in
ext4_commit_super).
Tested the patch by booting up a kernel with the patch, creating
a filesystem and some files (including some orphans), and then
unmounting and remounting the file system.

In the scenario of writing sparse files, the per-inode prealloc list may
be very long, resulting in high overhead for ext4_mb_use_preallocated().
To circumvent this problem, we limit the maximum length of per-inode
prealloc list to 512 and allow users to modify it.
After patching, we observed that the sys ratio of cpu has dropped, and
the system throughput has increased significantly. We created a process
to write the sparse file, and the running time of the process on the
fixed kernel was significantly reduced, as follows:
Running time on unfixed kernel：
[root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat
real 0m2.051s
user 0m0.008s
sys 0m2.026s
Running time on fixed kernel：
[root@TENCENT64 ~]# time taskset 0x01 ./sparse /data1/sparce.dat
real 0m0.471s
user 0m0.004s
sys 0m0.395s

It might be better to adjust the code in two places:
1. Determine whether grp is currupt or not should be placed first.
2. (cr<=2 && free <ac->ac_g_ex.fe_len)should may belong to the crx
strategy, and it may be more appropriate to put it in the
subsequent switch statement block. For cr1, cr2, the conditions
in switch potentially realize the above judgment. For cr0, we
should add (free <ac->ac_g_ex.fe_len) judgment, and then delete
(free / fragments) >= ac->ac_g_ex.fe_len), because cr0 returns
true by default.

ext4_search_dir() and ext4_generic_delete_entry() can be called both for
standard director blocks and for inline directories stored inside inode
or inline xattr space. For the second case we didn't call
ext4_check_dir_entry() with proper constraints that could result in
accepting corrupted directory entry as well as false positive filesystem
errors like:
EXT4-fs error (device dm-0): ext4_search_dir:1395: inode #28320400:
block 113246792: comm dockerd: bad entry in directory: directory entry too

If a device is hot-removed --- for example, when a physical device is
unplugged from pcie slot or a nbd device's network is shutdown ---
this can result in a BUG_ON() crash in submit_bh_wbc(). This is
because the when the block device dies, the buffer heads will have
their Buffer_Mapped flag get cleared, leading to the crash in
submit_bh_wbc.
We had attempted to work around this problem in commit a17712c8
("ext4: check superblock mapped prior to committing"). Unfortunately,
it's still possible to hit the BUG_ON(!buffer_mapped(bh)) if the
device dies between when the work-around check in ext4_commit_super()
and when submit_bh_wbh() is finally called:
Code path:

To address this, add the check of 'buffer_mapped(bh)' to
__sync_dirty_buffer(). This also has the benefit of fixing this for
other file systems.
With this addition, we can drop the workaround in ext4_commit_supper().
