The extent map code was ripped out earlier because of an inability to deal
with holes. This patch adds back a simpler caching scheme requiring far less
code.
Our old extent map caching was designed back when meta data block caching in
Ocfs2 didn't work very well, resulting in many disk reads. These days our
metadata caching is much better, resulting in no un-necessary disk reads. As
a result, extent caching doesn't have to be as fancy, nor does it have to
cache as many extents. Keeping the last 3 extents seen should be sufficient
to give us a small performance boost on some streaming workloads.

Older file systems which didn't support holes did a dumb calculation of
i_blocks based on i_size. This is no longer accurate, so fix things up to
take actual allocation into account.

Return an optional extent flags field from our lookup functions and wire up

Since we don't zero on extend anymore, truncate needs to be fixed up to zero
the part of a file between i_size and and end of it's cluster. Otherwise a
subsequent extend could expose bad data.
This introduced a new helper, which can be used in ocfs2_write().

For ocfs2_truncate_file(), we eliminate the "simple" truncate case which no
longer exists since i_size is not tied to i_clusters. In
ocfs2_extend_file(), we skip the allocation / page zeroing code for file
systems which understand sparse files.
The core truncate code is changed to do a bottom up tree traversal. This
gets abstracted out into it's own function. To make things more readable,
most of the special case handling for in-inode extents from
ocfs2_do_truncate() is also removed.
Though write support for sparse files comes in a later patch, we at least
update ocfs2_prepare_inode_for_write() to skip allocation for sparse files.

The code in extent_map.c is not prepared to deal with a subtree being
rotated between lookups. This can happen when filling holes in sparse files.
Instead of a lengthy patch to update the code (which would likely lose the
benefit of caching subtree roots), we remove most of the algorithms and
implement a simple path based lookup. A less ambitious extent caching scheme
will be added in a later patch.

There are two checks in there (one for inode newness, one for other mounted
nodes) which are unnecessary, so remove them. The DLM will allow the trylock
in either case without any messaging overhead.
Removing these makes ocfs2_request_delete() a one liner function, so just
move the trylock out one level into ocfs2_query_inode_wipe().

Ocfs2 currently does cluster-wide node messaging to check the open state of
an inode during delete. This patch removes that mechanism in favor of an
inode cluster lock which is taken at shared read when an inode is first read
and dropped in clear_inode(). This allows a deleting node to test the
liveness of an inode by attempting to take an exclusive lock.

This allows users to format an ocfs2 file system with a special flag,
OCFS2_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LOCAL_MOUNT. When the file system sees this flag, it
will not use any cluster services, nor will it require a cluster
configuration, thus acting like a 'local' file system.

This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want
to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr
routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function.
Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect)
values for i_blksize.

OCFS2 puts inode meta data in the "lock value block" provided by the DLM.
Typically, i_generation is encoded in the lock name so that a deleted inode
on and a new one in the same block don't share the same lvb.
Unfortunately, that scheme means that the read in ocfs2_read_locked_inode()
is potentially thrown away as soon as the meta data lock is taken - we
cannot encode the lock name without first knowing i_generation, which
requires a disk read.
This patch encodes i_generation in the inode meta data lvb, and removes the
value from the inode meta data lock name. This way, the read can be covered
by a lock, and at the same time we can distinguish between an up to date and
a stale LVB.
This will help cold-cache stat(2) performance in particular.
Since this patch changes the protocol version, we take the opportunity to do
a minor re-organization of two of the LVB fields.
