Linus Torvalds 9e239bb939 Lots of bug fixes, cleanups and optimizations. In the bug fixes
category, of note is a fix for on-line resizing file systems where the
 block size is smaller than the page size (i.e., file systems 1k blocks
 on x86, or more interestingly file systems with 4k blocks on Power or
 ia64 systems.)
 
 In the cleanup category, the ext4's punch hole implementation was
 significantly improved by Lukas Czerner, and now supports bigalloc
 file systems.  In addition, Jan Kara significantly cleaned up the
 write submission code path.  We also improved error checking and added
 a few sanity checks.
 
 In the optimizations category, two major optimizations deserve
 mention.  The first is that ext4_writepages() is now used for
 nodelalloc and ext3 compatibility mode.  This allows writes to be
 submitted much more efficiently as a single bio request, instead of
 being sent as individual 4k writes into the block layer (which then
 relied on the elevator code to coalesce the requests in the block
 queue).  Secondly, the extent cache shrink mechanism, which was
 introduce in 3.9, no longer has a scalability bottleneck caused by the
 i_es_lru spinlock.  Other optimizations include some changes to reduce
 CPU usage and to avoid issuing empty commits unnecessarily.
