Hi,

This patch series prevents parallel resizers and fixes some error handling in
resize code.  Besides these, some code is simplified so that the code could be
used easily in new resize implementation.

In the new resize implementation, all work, like allocating group tables, are
done by kernel side, so it can support flex_bg feature and BLOCK_UNINIT, and
adds multi groups (a flex groups) each time, it thus is very fast.

Once the patch series are merged, the new resize implementation will be post
quickly.

I split the patches into 2 series to let the patches be reviewed easily.

v1->v2:
   -- add commit logs for the 8th and the 10th patches.
   -- fix error handling in the 4th patch.
   -- remove the patch which prevents a fs without journal fromn being resized.

The patch for no-journal mode is removed so that this patches can be merged quickly,
we can handle no-journal mode after new resize is merged.
