ext4: simplify journal handling in setup_new_group_blocks()

This patch simplifies journal handling in setup_new_group_blocks().

In previous code, block bitmap is modified everywhere in
setup_new_group_blocks(), ext4_get_write_access() in
extend_or_restart_transaction() is used to guarantee that the block
bitmap stays in the new handle, this makes things complicated.

The previous commit changed things so that the modifications on the
block bitmap are batched and done by ext4_set_bits() at the end of the
for loop. This allows us to simplify things.

ext4: prevent parallel resizers by atomic bit ops

Before this patch, parallel resizers are allowed and protected by a
mutex lock, actually, there is no need to support parallel resizer, so
this patch prevents parallel resizers by atmoic bit ops, like
lock_page() and unlock_page() do.

To do this, the patch removed the mutex lock s_resize_lock from struct
ext4_sb_info and added a unsigned long field named s_resize_flags
which inidicates if there is a resizer.

ext4: Clean up s_dirt handling

We don't need to set s_dirt in most of the ext4 code when journaling
is enabled. In ext3/4 some of the summary statistics for # of free
inodes, blocks, and directories are calculated from the per-block
group statistics when the file system is mounted or unmounted. As a
result the superblock doesn't have to be updated, either via the
journal or by setting s_dirt. There are a few exceptions, most
notably when resizing the file system, where the superblock needs to
be modified --- and in that case it should be done as a journalled
operation if possible, and s_dirt set only in no-journal mode.

This patch will optimize out some unneeded disk writes when using ext4
with a journal.
