This might be the right thing to do , but  I don't see other places in
ext3/4 uses "bool" type for a flag.    I think just to keep the code
consistant,  using "int" as a flag varibale type is quit common, not a
big deal anyway.

The compile warning has already fixed in patch queue. I wan't sure what
do you mean in your last email about adding a space at the end of each
line?

Hmm. EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP could still be too big for a single
transaction.  Default EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP is 32kblocks, that's could
still overflow the max capacity of a single journal log (default is 1/4
journal log size(128M)).

In fact, even if the EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP is the right value, and you
only limit the credit reservation here, later, we still need to  limit
the logical page extent to flush in mpage_da_writepages() to not exceed
the previously reserved credits.

Not exactly right, the datablocks could spread over multiple block
groups with flex_bg.

if (chunk)
	groups = (nrblocks + 1 )/EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP + idxblocks;

I will fix the spell errors and update the patches.
