Convert ext4_extent_idx.ei_leaf ext4_extent_idx.ei_leaf_lo
This helps in finding BUGs due to direct partial access of
these split 48 bit values.

Convert ext4_extent.ee_start to ext4_extent.ee_start_lo

these split 48 bit values
Also fix direct partial access in ext4 code

This change was suggested by Andreas Dilger.
This patch changes the EXT_MAX_LEN value and extent code which marks/checks
uninitialized extents. With this change it will be possible to have
initialized extents with 2^15 blocks (earlier the max blocks we could have
was 2^15 - 1). This way we can have better extent-to-block alignment.
Now, maximum number of blocks we can have in an initialized extent is 2^15
and in an uninitialized extent is 2^15 - 1.

This patch adds write support to the uninitialized extents that get
created when a preallocation is done using fallocate(). It takes care of
splitting the extents into multiple (upto three) extents and merging the
new split extents with neighbouring ones, if possible.

This patch implements ->fallocate() inode operation in ext4. With this
patch users of ext4 file systems will be able to use fallocate() system
call for persistent preallocation. Current implementation only supports
preallocation for regular files (directories not supported as of date)
with extent maps. This patch does not support block-mapped files currently.
Only FALLOC_ALLOCATE and FALLOC_RESV_SPACE modes are being supported as of
now.

This patch adds a check for overlap of extents and cuts short the
new extent to be inserted, if there is a chance of overlap.

other things on the same lines while we're there.

Make it possible to add file preallocation support in future as an RO_COMPAT
feature by recognizing uninitialized extents as holes and limiting extent
length to keep the top bit of ee_len free for marking uninitialized extents.
