Subject: [PATCH] ext4 statfs speed up
This is a patch that speeds up statfs. It is very simple -
the "overhead" calculation, which takes a huge amount of time
for large filesystems, never changes unless the size of the
filesystem itself changes. That means we can store it in memory
and only recalculate if the filesystem has been resized (almost
never).
It also fixes a minor problem that we never update the on-disk
superblock free blocks/inodes counts until the filesystem is
unmounted. While not fatal, we may as well update that on disk
when we have the information, and it makes things like debugfs
and dumpe2fs report a bit more accurate info.
