The changes described last paragraph wasn't in the patch.  I assume it
was because patch #4 in this series changed:

	if (allocated <= max_blocks)

to:

	if (iblock == ee_block && allocated <= max_blocks)

I replaced the commit description with the following:


ext4: code clean up for dio fallocate handling

From: Mingming <cmm@us.ibm.com>

The ext4_debug() call in ext4_end_io_dio() should be moved after the
check to make sure that io_end is non-NULL.

The comment above ext4_get_block_dio_write() ("Maximum number of
blocks...") is a duplicate; the original and correct comment is above
the #define DIO_MAX_BLOCKS up above.

Based on review comments from Curt Wohlgemuth.
