[PATCH RESEND] Btrfs: add autodefrag inode flag

[PATCH RESEND] Btrfs: add autodefrag inode flag

[Omar Sandoval]

In some cases, we may not want to enable automatic defragmentation for
the whole filesystem with the "autodefrag" mount option but we still
want to defragment specific files or directories. Add an inode flag
which allows us to do specify that.

Resending this because I didn't send it to fsdevel or linux-api last
time and I'm adding a new user-facing inode flag.

XFS has a "no defrag" inode flag to tell the defragmenter not to
defrag the file. (XFS_XFLAG_NODEFRAG, see xfsctl(3)). With the ext4
project quota work, this flag and interface is being pulled up to
the VFS, so perhaps it would be a good idea to turn this around the
other way?  i.e. autodefrag is the default behaviour, and the inode
contains an inheritable  "no defrag" flag to prevent defrag so that
we have the same flag, API and behaviour across filesystems?

Cheers,

Dave.

+! on this suggestion, I find that there are only a few files that I 
don't want autodefrag enabled for, and I do want it on pretty much 
everything else.  Furthermore, userspace API consistency is a Good Thing.
