mballoc and inode prealloc space deletion

mballoc and inode prealloc space deletion

[Aneesh Kumar K.V]

Hi Alex,

With the latest changes i see both group preallocation and inode
preallocation being used by mballoc. Since the choice is now made with
file size not just the request size. (None of the test were actually
using inode prealloc previously). Now that the test are using inode prealloc i
see the below dump stack on the console. I guess you put in the dump
stack there to  find out how often these happen. Do you still want the
dump stack to be there. Or can I remove it. ?

uh-oh! some one just deleted it
