Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/5] ext4: add a delayed extents list in inode

This patch adds a delayed extents list in inode, so that
delayed extents can be look up quickly.  Without the tree
delayed extents are identified by looking up page cache.

With the list, FIEMAP, SEEK_HOLE/DATA, bigalloc and writeout
path can be optimized a lot.
