ext4: add flag to ext4_has_free_blocks
This patch adds an allocation request flag to the ext4_has_free_blocks
function which enables the use of reserved blocks. This will allow a
punch hole to proceed even if the disk is full. Punching a hole may
require additional blocks to first split the extents.
Because ext4_has_free_blocks is a low level function, the flag needs
to be passed down through several functions listed below:
ext4_ext_insert_extent
ext4_ext_create_new_leaf
ext4_ext_grow_indepth
ext4_ext_split
ext4_ext_new_meta_block
ext4_mb_new_blocks
ext4_claim_free_blocks
ext4_has_free_blocks
[ext4 punch hole patch series 1/5 v7]
