After creating an ext4 file system without a journal:
# mke2fs -t ext4 -O ^has_journal /dev/sda
# mount -t ext4 /dev/sda /test
the /proc/mounts will show:
"/dev/sda /test ext4 rw,relatime,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=writeback 0 0"
which can fool users into thinking that the fs is using writeback mode.
So don't set the writeback option when the journal has not been
enabled; we don't depend on the writeback option being set, since
ext4_should_writeback_data() in ext4_jbd2.h tests to see if the
journal is not present before returning true.

For some reason, when we set the mount option "init_itable=0" it
behaves as we would set init_itable=20 which is not right at all.
Basically when we set it to zero we are saying to lazyinit thread not
to wait between zeroing the inode table (except of cond_resched()) so
this commit fixes that and removes the unnecessary condition. The 'n'
should be also properly used on remount.
When the n is not set at all, it means that the default miltiplier
EXT4_DEF_LI_WAIT_MULT is set instead.

In order to make lazyinit eat approx. 10% of io bandwidth at max, we
are sleeping between zeroing each single inode table. For that purpose
we are using timer which wakes up thread when it expires. It is set
via add_timer() and this may cause troubles in the case that thread
has been woken up earlier and in next iteration we call add_timer() on
still running timer hence hitting BUG_ON in add_timer(). We could fix
that by using mod_timer() instead however we can use
schedule_timeout_interruptible() for waiting and hence simplifying
things a lot.
This commit exchange the old "waiting mechanism" with simple
schedule_timeout_interruptible(), setting the time to sleep. Hence we
do not longer need li_wait_daemon waiting queue and others, so get rid
of it.

The block allocation code used to use jbd2_journal_get_undo_access as

ext4_symlink() cannot call __page_symlink() with transaction open.
__page_symlink() calls ext4_write_begin() which can wait for
transaction commit if we are running out of space thus causing a
deadlock. Also error recovery in ext4_truncate_failed_write() does not
count with the transaction being already started (although I'm not
aware of any particular deadlock here).
Fix the problem by stopping a transaction before calling
__page_symlink() (we have to be careful and put inode to orphan list
so that it gets deleted in case of crash) and starting another one
after __page_symlink() returns for addition of symlink into a
directory.

If an application program does not make any changes to the indirect
blocks or extent tree, i_datasync_tid will not get updated. If there
are enough commits (i.e., 2**31) such that tid_geq()'s calculations
wrap, and there isn't a currently active transaction at the time of
the fdatasync() call, this can end up triggering a BUG_ON in
fs/jbd2/commit.c:
J_ASSERT(journal->j_running_transaction != NULL);
It's pretty rare that this can happen, since it requires the use of
fdatasync() plus *very* frequent and excessive use of fsync(). But
with the right workload, it can.
We fix this by replacing the use of tid_geq() with an equality test,
since there's only one valid transaction id that we is valid for us to
wait until it is commited: namely, the currently running transaction
(if it exists).

This is an effective revert of commit a30eec2a8: "ext4: stop issuing
discards if not supported by device". The problem is that there are
some devices that may return errors in response to a discard request
some times but not others. (One example would be a hybrid dm device
which concatenates an SSD and an HDD device).
By this logic, I also removed the error checking from ext4's FITRIM
code; so that an error from a discard will not stop the FITRIM from
trying to trim the rest of the file system.

In the bio completion routine, we should not be setting
PageUptodate at all -- it's set at sys_write() time, and is
unaffected by success/failure of the write to disk.
This can cause a page corruption bug when the file system's
block size is less than the architecture's VM page size.
if we have only written a single block -- we might end up
setting the page's PageUptodate flag, indicating that page
is completely read into memory, which may not be true.
This could cause subsequent reads to get bad data.
This commit also takes the opportunity to clean up error
handling in ext4_end_bio(), and remove some extraneous code:
- fixes ext4_end_bio() to set AS_EIO in the
page->mapping->flags on error, which was left out by
mistake. This is needed so that fsync() will
return an error if there was an I/O error.
- remove the clear_buffer_dirty() call on unmapped
buffers for each page.
- consolidate page/buffer error handling in a single
section.

system does not have any unsupported file system features as defined
by ext[23] when emulating the ext[23] file system driver when
CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23 is defined.
This causes the file system type information in /proc/mounts to be
correct for the automatically mounted root file system. This also

ext4 has taken the stance that, in the absence of a journal,
when an fsync/fdatasync of an inode is done, the parent
directory should be sync'ed if this inode entry is new.
ext4_sync_parent(), which implements this, does indeed sync
the dirent pages for parent directories, but it does not
sync the directory *inode*. This patch fixes this.
Also now return error status from ext4_sync_parent().
I tested this using a power fail test, which panics a
