There is a patch set available at:

git://repo.or.cz/ext4-patch-queue.git

The bigalloc patches are after the stable-boundary, and will apply
against 3.0-rc1.

Note that I've fixed them up so that they apply on top of the punch
changes; however, the punch ioctl will not work correctly if bigalloc
is enabled, since that hasn't been fixed up yet.

Also, I'm still working on the e2fsprogs support.
