Like I proposed earlier, I would prefer create a new percpu counter API
to do the percpu_counter_sum_and_sub(), hide the CONFIG_SMP there,
rather than expose the percpu counter implementation details in ext4 fs
code here.

It also be nice and sane to define

#define EXT4_FREEBLOCKS_LOW_WATERMARK 4* nr_cpu_ids * nr_cpu_ids

Other than this, patch looks good.
