Subject: [PATCH v2 00/12] e4defrag: fragmentation score rework and cleanups

Hi,

This patch set adds the new function e2p_get_fragscore() to libe2p, that
calculates the fragmentation score. Fragmentation score shows how badly
fragmented the file might be. e4defrag uses it to determine smarter whether to
call EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl.

In addition, the 6th to the last is bugfix or cleanup patch.

v1 -> v2
- Fix the method of calculating fragmentation score to show the number of
  extents per specified blocks
- Remove the check of filesystem type to calculate the fragmentation score
  for the file in non-ext4 filesystem
- Drop the patch for filefrag
- Fix free blocks check to use reserved blocks by users specified by
  resuid/resgid mount option
- Add -F option to defrag a file if the fragment can get better even if
  the fragmentation score of donor file is bigger than 1

This patch set is for e2fsprogs git tree. (commit:d4c0d8e5b8)
