Linus Torvalds 0b832a4b93 Revert "ext2/ext3/ext4: add block bitmap validation"
This reverts commit 7c9e69faa2, fixing up
conflicts in fs/ext4/balloc.c manually.

The cost of doing the bitmap validation on each lookup - even when the
bitmap is cached - is absolutely prohibitive.  We could, and probably
should, do it only when adding the bitmap to the buffer cache.  However,
right now we are better off just reverting it.

Peter Zijlstra measured the cost of this extra validation as a 85%
decrease in cached iozone, and while I had a patch that took it down to
just 17% by not being _quite_ so stupid in the validation, it was still
a big slowdown that could have been avoided by just doing it right.
