Subject: [PATCH 0/4] ext4: ioc_move_ext fixes

Currenty EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT is very dangerous call because anyone who
has write perm is able to call it and trigger kernel panic. Even more
all kernel since v2.6.30-6558-g748de67 are affected, so current
Debian and Redhat server solutions are dangerous.

Tests are available here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-fsdevel/msg58316.html
Or here:
https://github.com/dmonakhov/xfstests/tree/ce8e3adab629b2a9be8ba2e73db7dad49eb46614
288'th test
