Subject: [PATCH v3 4/7] ext4: Add support for EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_QUERY_LEAF_BLOCKS

There can be a case where there are contiguous extents on the adjacent
leaf nodes of on-disk extent trees. So when someone tries to write to
this contiguous range, ext4_map_blocks() call will split by returning
1 extent at a time if this is not already cached in extent_status tree
cache (where if these extents when cached can get merged since they are
contiguous).

This is fine for a normal write however in case of atomic writes, it
can't afford to break the write into two. Now this is also something
that will only happen in the slow write case where we call
ext4_map_blocks() for each of these extents spread across different leaf
nodes. However, there is no guarantee that these extent status cache
cannot be reclaimed before the last call to ext4_map_blocks() in
ext4_map_blocks_atomic_write_slow().

Hence this patch adds support of EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_QUERY_LEAF_BLOCKS.
This flag checks if the requested range can be fully found in extent
status cache and return. If not, it looks up in on-disk extent
tree via ext4_map_query_blocks(). If the found extent is the last entry
in the leaf node, then it goes and queries the next lblk to see if there
is an adjacent contiguous extent in the adjacent leaf node of the
on-disk extent tree.

Even though there can be a case where there are multiple adjacent extent
entries spread across multiple leaf nodes. But we only read an adjacent
leaf block i.e. in total of 2 extent entries spread across 2 leaf nodes.
The reason for this is that we are mostly only going to support atomic
writes with upto 64KB or maybe max upto 1MB of atomic write support.
