[PATCH 25/52] ext4: cleanup block allocator

From: Theodore Ts'o
Date: Sat Jul 05 2008 - 13:46:34 EST


From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Move the code related to block allocation to a single function and add helper
funtions to differient allocation for data and meta data blocks
