Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4
Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
"A lot of bug fixes and cleanups for ext4, including:
- Fix performance problems found in dioread_nolock now that it is the
default, caused by transaction leaks.
- Clean up fiemap handling in ext4
- Clean up and refactor multiple block allocator (mballoc) code
- Fix a problem with mballoc with a smaller file systems running out
of blocks because they couldn't properly use blocks that had been
reserved by inode preallocation.
- Fixed a race in ext4_sync_parent() versus rename()
- Simplify the error handling in the extent manipulation code
- Make sure all metadata I/O errors are felected to
ext4_ext_dirty()'s and ext4_make_inode_dirty()'s callers.
- Avoid passing an error pointer to brelse in ext4_xattr_set()
- Fix race which could result to freeing an inode on the dirty last
in data=journal mode.
- Fix refcount handling if ext4_iget() fails
- Fix a crash in generic/019 caused by a corrupted extent node"
