Pull ext2, ext3 and quota fixes from Jan Kara:
 "Interesting bits are:
   - removal of a special i_mutex locking subclass (I_MUTEX_QUOTA) since
     quota code does not need i_mutex anymore in any unusual way.
   - backport (from ext4) of a fix of a checkpointing bug (missing cache
     flush) that could lead to fs corruption on power failure

  The rest are just random small fixes &amp; cleanups."

The comment is outdated and isn't particularly informative anyway - NULL
meaning the default behavior is very common in kernel. And we really set about
half of entries. So remove the whole comment for ext2_export_ops.

We don't need i_mutex in ext2_quota_write() because writes to quota file
are serialized by dqio_mutex anyway. Changes to quota files outside of quota
code are forbidded and enforced by NOATIME and IMMUTABLE bits.

<title>ext2: do not register write_super within VFS</title>

Jan Kara removed 'sb-&gt;s_dirt' VFS flag references, so we do not need to
register the ext2 'ext2_write_super()' method in the VFS superblock operations,
because 'sb-&gt;s_dirt' won't be ever set to 1 and VFS won't ever call
'-&gt;write_super()' anyway. Thus, remove the method.

Tested using xfstests.

<title>ext2: Remove s_dirt handling</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b838ec2232b764a4903707e212c62f681b32cd51</id>
<content type='text'>
Places which modify superblock feature / state fields mark the superblock
buffer dirty so it is written out by flusher thread. Thus there's no need to
set s_dirt there.

The only other fields changing in the superblock are the numbers of free
blocks, free inodes and s_wtime. There's no real need to write (or even
compute) these periodically. Free blocks / inodes counters are recomputed on
every mount from group counters anyway and value of s_wtime is only
informational and imprecise anyway. So it should be enough to write these
opportunistically on mount, remount, umount, and sync_fs times.

<content type='text'>
Currently on unmount if we are mounted R/W, we first write the superblock to
the media if it is dirty, and then write it again, which is not optimal. This
patch makes ext2 write the superblock on unmount less times.

New field of struct super_block - -&gt;s_max_links.  Maximal allowed
value of -&gt;i_nlink or 0; in the latter case all checks still need
to be done in -&gt;link/-&gt;mkdir/-&gt;rename instances.  Note that this
limit applies both to directoris and to non-directories.
