commit 27e75138890129895a5639f602fec564479583b3
Author: Jose R. Santos <jrs@xxxxxxxxxx>

FLEX_BG Kernel support v2.
This feature relaxes check restrictions on where each block groups meta data is
located within the storage media. This allows for the allocation of bitmaps or
inode tables outside the block group boundaries in cases where bad blocks forces
us to look for new blocks which the owning block group can not satisfy. This
will also allow for new meta-data allocation schemes to improve performance and
scalability.
