<title>ocfs2: improve performance for localalloc</title>

Currently cluster allocation is always trying to find a victim chain (a
chian has most space), and this may lead to poor performance because of
discontiguous allocation in some scenarios.

Our test case is block size 4k, cluster size 1M and mount option with
localalloc=2048 (2G), since a gd is 32256M (about 31.5G) and a localalloc
window is only 2G, creating 50G file will result in 2G from gd0, 2G from
gd1, ...

One way to improve performance is enlarge localalloc window size (max
31104M), but this will make end user feel that about 30G is suddenly
"missing", and localalloc currently do not support steal, which means one
node cannot use another node's localalloc even it is not used in fact.  So
using the last gd to record the allocation and continues with the gd if it
has enough space for a localalloc window can make the allocation as more
contiguous as possible.

Our test result is below (evaluated in IOPS), which is using iometer
running in VM, dynamic vhd virtual disk stored in ocfs2.

IO model                Original   After   Improved(%)

Caveat: This may return -EROFS for a read case, which seems wrong.  This

ocfs2_block_group_clear_bits will clear bits in block group bitmap.
Once it succeeds but fails in the following step, it will cause block
group bitmap mismatch the corresponding count recorded in dinode.
So rollback the cleared bits if error occurs.

After updating alloc_dinode counts in ocfs2_alloc_dinode_update_counts(),
if ocfs2_alloc_dinode_update_bitmap() failed, there is a rare case that
some space may be lost.

So, roll back alloc_dinode counts when ocfs2_block_group_set_bits()

ocfs2_alloc_dinode_update_counts() and ocfs2_block_group_set_bits() are
