Subject: [PATCH 0/5] miscellaneous kernel ext4 fixes

Here are a few patches that have been sitting around in my tree for a
while.  They're not interdependent; the first three are simple
bugfixes.  The last one introduces ext5, which reduces our testing
matrix by requiring a fairly large set of features and eliminating
most mount options.  True, not all the features are stable or ready
for production yet, but six years after ext4 we have a bunch of new
features ready for wider testing.

I've tested these kernel changes against 3.15-rc3.  These days, I use
several VMs, each with 8GB ramdisks to test with; the test process is
checkpatch > metadata checksum tests > xfstests.

Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.
