[PATCH RFC 4/5] ext4: Prepare ext4_mb_discard_preallocations() for handling EXT4_MB_HINT_GOAL_ONLY

From: Kirill Tkhai
Date: Wed Feb 26 2020 - 08:41:45 EST


EXT4_MB_HINT_GOAL_ONLY is currently unused. This patch teaches
ext4_mb_discard_preallocations() to discard only that preallocated
range, which contains a specified block, in case of the flag is set.
Otherwise, a preallocated range is not discarded.
