jbd[2]_journal_dirty_metadata() only returns 0. It's been returning 0
since before the kernel moved to git. There is no point in checking
this error.
ocfs2_journal_dirty() has been faithfully returning the status since the
beginning. All over ocfs2, we have blocks of code checking this can't
fail status. In the past few years, we've tried to avoid adding these
checks, because they are pointless. But anyone who looks at our code
assumes they are needed.
Finally, ocfs2_journal_dirty() is made a void function. All error
checking is removed from other files. We'll BUG_ON() the status of
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() just in case they change it someday. They
won't.

The next step in divorcing metadata I/O management from struct inode is
to pass struct ocfs2_caching_info to the journal functions. Thus the
journal locks a metadata cache with the cache io_lock function. It also
can compare ci_last_trans and ci_created_trans directly.
This is a large patch because of all the places we change
ocfs2_journal_access..(handle, inode, ...) to
ocfs2_journal_access..(handle, INODE_CACHE(inode), ...).

We are really passing the inode into the ocfs2_read/write_blocks()
functions to get at the metadata cache. This commit passes the cache
directly into the metadata block functions, divorcing them from the
inode.

The per-metadata-type ocfs2_journal_access_*() functions hook up jbd2
commit triggers and allow us to compute metadata ecc right before the
buffers are written out. This commit provides ecc for inodes, extent
blocks, group descriptors, and quota blocks. It is not safe to use
extened attributes and metaecc at the same time yet.
The ocfs2_extent_tree and ocfs2_path abstractions in alloc.c both hide
the type of block at their root. Before, it didn't matter, but now the
root block must use the appropriate ocfs2_journal_access_*() function.
To keep this abstract, the structures now have a pointer to the matching
journal_access function and a wrapper call to call it.
A few places use naked ocfs2_write_block() calls instead of adding the
blocks to the journal. We make sure to calculate their checksum and ecc
before the write.
Since we pass around the journal_access functions. Let's typedef them
in ocfs2.h.

Add an optional validation hook to ocfs2_read_blocks(). Now the
validation function is only called when a block was actually read off of
disk. It is not called when the buffer was in cache.
We add a buffer state bit BH_NeedsValidate to flag these buffers. It
must always be one higher than the last JBD2 buffer state bit.
The dinode, dirblock, extent_block, and xattr_block validators are
lifted to this scheme directly. The group_descriptor validator needs to
be split into two pieces. The first part only needs the gd buffer and
is passed to ocfs2_read_block(). The second part requires the dinode as
well, and is called every time. It's only 3 compares, so it's tiny.
This also allows us to clean up the non-fatal gd check used by resize.c.
It now has no magic argument.

We have a clean call for validating group descriptors, but every place
that wants the always does a read_block()+validate() call pair. Create
a toplevel ocfs2_read_group_descriptor() that does the right
thing. This allows us to leverage the single call point later for
fancier handling. We also add validation of gd->bg_generation against
the superblock and gd->bg_blkno against the block we thought we read.

Currently the validation of group descriptors is directly duplicated so
that one version can error the filesystem and the other (resize) can
just report the problem. Consolidate to one function that takes a
boolean. Wrap that function with the old call for the old users.
This is in preparation for lifting the read+validate step into a
single function.

Random places in the code would check a dinode bh to see if it was
valid. Not only did they do different levels of validation, they
handled errors in different ways.
The previous commit unified inode block reads, validating all block
reads in the same place. Thus, these haphazard checks are no longer
necessary. Rather than eliminate them, however, we change them to
BUG_ON() checks. This ensures the assumptions remain true. All of the
code paths to these checks have been audited to ensure they come from a
validated inode read.

More than 30 callers of ocfs2_read_block() pass exactly OCFS2_BH_CACHED.
Only six pass a different flag set. Rather than have every caller care,
let's make ocfs2_read_block() take no flags and always do a cached read.
The remaining six places can call ocfs2_read_blocks() directly.

Now that synchronous readers are using ocfs2_read_blocks_sync(), all

The ocfs2_read_blocks() function currently handles sync reads, cached,
reads, and sometimes cached reads. We're going to add some
functionality to it, so first we should simplify it. The uncached,
synchronous reads are much easer to handle as a separate function, so we
instroduce ocfs2_read_blocks_sync().

If we know a buffer_head is non-null, then brelse() is unnecessary and
put_bh() can be used instead. Also, an explicit check for NULL is
unnecessary when using brelse(). This patch only covers buffer_head_io.c and
resize.c, which have recently added code which exhibits this problem.

This patch adds the ability for a userspace program to request that a
properly formatted cluster group be added to the main allocation bitmap for
an Ocfs2 file system. The request is made via an ioctl, OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_ADD.
On a high level, this is similar to ext3, but we use a different ioctl as
the structure which has to be passed through is different.
During an online resize, tunefs.ocfs2 will format any new cluster groups
which must be added to complete the resize, and call OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_ADD on
each one. Kernel verifies that the core cluster group information is valid
and then does the work of linking it into the global allocation bitmap.

This patch adds the ability for a userspace program to request an extend of
last cluster group on an Ocfs2 file system. The request is made via ioctl,
OCFS2_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND. This is derived from EXT3_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND, but is
obviously Ocfs2 specific.
tunefs.ocfs2 would call this for an online-resize operation if the last
cluster group isn't full.
