Struct mpage_da_data and mpage_add_bh_to_extent() use a fake struct buffer_head which is 104 bytes on an x86_64 system, but only use 24 bytes of the structure. On systems that use a spinlock for atomic_t, the stack savings will be even greater. It turns out that using a fake struct buffer_head doesn't even save that much code, and it makes the code more confusing since it's not used as a "real" buffer head. So just store pass b_size and b_state in mpage_add_bh_to_extent(), and store b_size, b_state, and b_block_nr in the mpage_da_data structure.
