Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
 "The big new feature added this time is supporting online resizing
  using the meta_bg feature.  This allows us to resize file systems
  which are greater than 16TB.  In addition, the speed of online
  resizing has been improved in general.

  We also fix a number of races, some of which could lead to deadlocks,
  in ext4's Asynchronous I/O and online defrag support, thanks to good
  work by Dmitry Monakhov.

  There are also a large number of more minor bug fixes and cleanups
  from a number of other ext4 contributors, quite of few of which have
  submitted fixes for the first time."

 Description:

+Description:
+		The maximum number of kilobytes which will be zeroed
+		out in preference to creating a new uninitialized
+		extent when manipulating an inode's extent tree.  Note
+		that using a larger value will increase the
+		variability of time necessary to complete a random
+		write operation (since a 4k random write might turn
+		into a much larger write due to the zeroout
+		operation).
