ext4: clean up the JBD2 API that initializes fast commits

This patch removes jbd2_fc_init() API and its related functions to
simplify enabling fast commits. With this change, the number of fast
commit blocks to use is solely determined by the JBD2 layer. So, we
move the default value for minimum number of fast commit blocks from
ext4/fast_commit.h to include/linux/jbd2.h. However, whether or not to
use fast commits is determined by the file system. The file system
just sets the fast commit feature using
jbd2_journal_set_features(). JBD2 layer then determines how many
blocks to use for fast commits (based on the value found in the JBD2
superblock).

Note that the JBD2 feature flag of fast commits is just an indication
that there are fast commit blocks present on disk. It doesn't tell
JBD2 layer about the intent of the file system of whether to it wants
to use fast commit or not. That's why, we blindly clear the fast
commit flag in journal_reset() after the recovery is done.

ext4: mark fc ineligible if inode gets evictied due to mem pressure

If inode gets evicted due to memory pressure, we have to remove it
from the fast commit list. However, that inode may have uncommitted
changes that fast commits will lose. So, just fall back to full
commits in this case. Also, rename the fast commit ineligiblity reason
from "EXT4_FC_REASON_MEM" to "EXT4_FC_REASON_MEM_NOMEM" for better
expression.

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
"The siginificant new ext4 feature this time around is Harshad's new
fast_commit mode.

In addition, thanks to Mauricio for fixing a race where mmap'ed pages
that are being changed in parallel with a data=journal transaction
commit could result in bad checksums in the failure that could cause
journal replays to fail.

Also notable is Ritesh's buffered write optimization which can result
in significant improvements on parallel write workloads. (The kernel
test robot reported a 330.6% improvement on fio.write_iops on a 96
core system using DAX)

Besides that, we have the usual miscellaneous cleanups and bug fixes"

ext4: fast commit recovery path

This patch adds fast commit recovery path support for Ext4 file
system. We add several helper functions that are similar in spirit to
e2fsprogs journal recovery path handlers. Example of such functions
include - a simple block allocator, idempotent block bitmap update
function etc. Using these routines and the fast commit log in the fast
commit area, the recovery path (ext4_fc_replay()) performs fast commit
log recovery.

ext4: main fast-commit commit path

This patch adds main fast commit commit path handlers. The overall
patch can be divided into two inter-related parts:

(A) Metadata updates tracking

This part consists of helper functions to track changes that need
to be committed during a commit operation. These updates are
maintained by Ext4 in different in-memory queues. Following are
the APIs and their short description that are implemented in this
patch:

- ext4_fc_track_link/unlink/creat() - Track unlink. link and creat
operations
- ext4_fc_track_range() - Track changed logical block offsets
inodes
- ext4_fc_track_inode() - Track inodes
- ext4_fc_mark_ineligible() - Mark file system fast commit
ineligible()
- ext4_fc_start_update() / ext4_fc_stop_update() /
ext4_fc_start_ineligible() / ext4_fc_stop_ineligible() These
functions are useful for co-ordinating inode updates with
commits.

(B) Main commit Path

This part consists of functions to convert updates tracked in
in-memory data structures into on-disk commits. Function
ext4_fc_commit() is the main entry point to commit path.
