ext4: Transfer initialized block to right neighbor if possible
Currently when converting extent to initialized we attempt to transfer initialized block to the left neighbour if possible when certain criteria are met. However we do not attempt to do the same for the right neighbor. This commit adds the possibility to transfer initialized block to the right neighbour if: 1. We're not converting the whole extent 2. Both extents are stored in the same extent tree node 3. Right neighbor is initialized 4. Right neighbor is logically abutting the current one 5. Right neighbor is physically abutting the current one 6. Right neighbor would not overflow the length limit This is basically the same logic as with transferring to the left. This will gain us some performance benefits since it is faster than inserting extent and then merging it. It would also prevent some situation in delalloc patch when we might run out of metadata reservation. This is due to the fact that we would attempt to split the extent first (possibly allocating new metadata block) even though we did not counted for that because it can (and will) be merged again. This commit fix that scenario, because we no longer need to split the extent in such case. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com>
