    ocfs2: Use metadata-specific ocfs2_journal_access_*() functions. · 13723d00

    The per-metadata-type ocfs2_journal_access_*() functions hook up jbd2
    commit triggers and allow us to compute metadata ecc right before the
    buffers are written out.  This commit provides ecc for inodes, extent
    blocks, group descriptors, and quota blocks.  It is not safe to use
    extened attributes and metaecc at the same time yet.
    
    The ocfs2_extent_tree and ocfs2_path abstractions in alloc.c both hide
    the type of block at their root.  Before, it didn't matter, but now the
    root block must use the appropriate ocfs2_journal_access_*() function.
    To keep this abstract, the structures now have a pointer to the matching
    journal_access function and a wrapper call to call it.
    
    A few places use naked ocfs2_write_block() calls instead of adding the
    blocks to the journal.  We make sure to calculate their checksum and ecc
    before the write.
    
    Since we pass around the journal_access functions.  Let's typedef them
    in ocfs2.h.
