Subject: [PATCH] ext4: Don't allow lg prealloc list to be grow large.

Currently, the locality group prealloc list is freed only when there
is a block allocation failure. This can result in large number of
entries in the preallocation list making ext4_mb_use_preallocated()
expensive.

To fix this, we convert the locality group prealloc list to a hash
list. The hash index is the order of number of blocks in the prealloc
space with a max order of 9. When adding prealloc space to the list we
make sure total entries for each order does not exceed 8. If it is
more than 8 we discard few entries and make sure the we have only <= 5
entries.
