Linus Torvalds d723b99ec9 Improvements to ext4's block allocator performance for very large file
systems, especially when the file system or files which are highly
 fragmented.  There is a new mount option, prefetch_block_bitmaps which
 will pull in the block bitmaps and set up the in-memory buddy bitmaps
 when the file system is initially mounted.
 
 Beyond that, a lot of bug fixes and cleanups.  In particular, a number
 of changes to make ext4 more robust in the face of write errors or
 file system corruptions.
