ext4: fix up remaining files with SPDX cleanups

A number of ext4 source files were skipped due because their copyright
permission statements didn't match the expected text used by the
automated conversion utilities. I've added SPDX tags for the rest.

While looking at some of these files, I've noticed that we have quite
a bit of variation on the licenses that were used --- in particular
some of the Red Hat licenses on the jbd2 files use a GPL2+ license,
and we have some files that have a LGPL-2.1 license (which was quite
surprising).

I've not attempted to do any license changes. Even if it is perfectly
legal to relicense to GPL 2.0-only for consistency's sake, that should
be done with ext4 developer community discussion.

ext4: do not perform data journaling when data is encrypted

Currently data journalling is incompatible with encryption: enabling both
at the same time has never been supported by design, and would result in
unpredictable behavior. However, users are not precluded from turning on
both features simultaneously. This change programmatically replaces data
journaling for encrypted regular files with ordered data journaling mode.

Background:
Journaling encrypted data has not been supported because it operates on
buffer heads of the page in the page cache. Namely, when the commit
happens, which could be up to five seconds after caching, the commit
thread uses the buffer heads attached to the page to copy the contents of
the page to the journal. With encryption, it would have been required to
keep the bounce buffer with ciphertext for up to the aforementioned five
seconds, since the page cache can only hold plaintext and could not be
used for journaling. Alternatively, it would be required to setup the
journal to initiate a callback at the commit time to perform deferred
encryption - in this case, not only would the data have to be written
twice, but it would also have to be encrypted twice. This level of
complexity was not justified for a mode that in practice is very rarely
used because of the overhead from the data journalling.

Solution:
If data=journaled has been set as a mount option for a filesystem, or if
journaling is enabled on a regular file, do not perform journaling if the
file is also encrypted, instead fall back to the data=ordered mode for the
file.

Rationale:
The intent is to allow seamless and proper filesystem operation when
journaling and encryption have both been enabled, and have these two
conflicting features gracefully resolved by the filesystem.

ext4: do not ask jbd2 to write data for delalloc buffers

Currently we ask jbd2 to write all dirty allocated buffers before
committing a transaction when doing writeback of delay allocated blocks.
However this is unnecessary since we move all pages to writeback state
before dropping a transaction handle and then submit all the necessary
IO. We still need the transaction commit to wait for all the outstanding
writeback before flushing disk caches during transaction commit to avoid
data exposure issues though. Use the new jbd2 capability and ask it to
only wait for outstanding writeback during transaction commit when
writing back data in ext4_writepages().

jbd2: add support for avoiding data writes during transaction commits

Currently when filesystem needs to make sure data is on permanent
storage before committing a transaction it adds inode to transaction's
inode list. During transaction commit, jbd2 writes back all dirty
buffers that have allocated underlying blocks and waits for the IO to
finish. However when doing writeback for delayed allocated data, we
allocate blocks and immediately submit the data. Thus asking jbd2 to
write dirty pages just unnecessarily adds more work to jbd2 possibly
writing back other redirtied blocks.

Add support to jbd2 to allow filesystem to ask jbd2 to only wait for
outstanding data writes before committing a transaction and thus avoid
unnecessary writes.

Later we would like to clear PageWriteback bit only after extent

is not possible to start a transaction after PageWriteback is set
because that violates lock ordering (and is easy to deadlock). So we
have to reserve a transaction before locking pages and sending them
for IO and later we use the transaction for extent conversion from
ext4_end_io().

ext4: fix the number of credits needed for acl ops with inline data

Operations which modify extended attributes may need extra journal
credits if inline data is used, since there is a chance that some
extended attributes may need to get pushed to an external attribute
block.

Changes to reflect this was made in xattr.c, but they were missed in
fs/ext4/acl.c. To fix this, abstract the calculation of the number of
credits needed for xattr operations to an inline function defined in
ext4_jbd2.h, and use it in acl.c and xattr.c.

Also move the function declarations used in inline.c from xattr.h
(where they are non-obviously hidden, and caused problems since
ext4_jbd2.h needs to use the function ext4_has_inline_data), and move
them to ext4.h.

ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start()

So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for
long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass

The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is:

T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats
echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter
echo 1 > $EVENT/enable

./run-my-fs-benchmark

cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles

This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms. Having
longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong
time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an
fsync() or an O_SYNC operation. Here is an example line from the
trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over
1.2 seconds:
