f2fs: support in batch multi blocks preallocation
This patch introduces reserve_new_blocks to make preallocation of multi
blocks as in batch operation, so it can avoid lots of redundant
operation, result in better performance.
In virtual machine, with rotational device:
time fallocate -l 32G /mnt/f2fs/file
Before:
real 0m4.584s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m4.580s
After:
real 0m0.292s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.272s
In x86, with SSD:
time fallocate -l 500G $MNT/testfile
Before : 24.758 s
After : 1.604 s
