Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4
Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o: "New features for 3.12: - Added aggressive extent caching using the extent status tree. This can actually decrease memory usage in read-mostly workloads since the information is much more compactly stored in the extent status tree than if we had to keep the extent tree metadata blocks in the buffer cache. This also improves Asynchronous I/O since it is it makes much less likely that we need to do metadata I/O to lookup the extent tree information. - Improve the recovery after corrupted allocation bitmaps are found when running in errors=ignore mode. Also fixed some writeback vs truncate races when using a blocksize less than the page size" * tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4: (25 commits) ext4: allow specifying external journal by pathname mount option ext4: mark group corrupt on group descriptor checksum ext4: mark block group as corrupt on inode bitmap error ext4: mark block group as corrupt on block bitmap error ext4: fix type declaration of ext4_validate_block_bitmap ext4: error out if verifying the block bitmap fails jbd2: Fix endian mixing problems in the checksumming code ext4: isolate ext4_extents.h file ext4: Fix misspellings using 'codespell' tool ext4: convert write_begin methods to stable_page_writes semantics ext4: fix use of potentially uninitialized variables in debugging code ext4: fix lost truncate due to race with writeback ext4: simplify truncation code in ext4_setattr() ext4: fix ext4_writepages() in presence of truncate ext4: move test whether extent to map can be extended to one place ext4: fix warning in ext4_da_update_reserve_space() quota: provide interface for readding allocated space into reserved space ext4: avoid reusing recently deleted inodes in no journal mode ext4: allocate delayed allocation blocks before rename ext4: start handle at least possible moment when renaming files ...
