Which does what? A bit of digging through git history tells
me, but an idiot reader like myself doesn't know what a
"secure trim" is. ;) Would be nice to have that info,
and the reason for elevating it from a block-level ioctl
to an fs-level ioctl in the commit log.
IOWS: your commit log says what, but not why.
Also:
You're adding a new high-level IOCTL, so let's get a bit more
visibility than just linux-ext4; linux-fsdevel cc'd.
one other ext4-specific note below.

This last conditional is unrelated to the patch; if BIGALLOC has another
incomplete part of its implementation, please send it as a standalone patch,
not buried in this one.
