This could be declared "const int" so that it is not consuming space on
the stack, or just put it inline in the code instead of a stack variable
since it is a compile time constant.

This can be marked unlikely() I think.

I wonder if it makes sense to pre-compute the crc32c of s_uuid (stored
in sbi) and/or s_uuid+inum (stored in struct ext4_inode_info). I suspect
precomputing the s_uuid checksum is worthwhile, but I'm not sure whether
precomputing the inode checksum is worthwhile unless it doesn't reduce
the number of ext4_inode_info structs per page in the slab.

I suspect it would be more efficient to set raw->i_checksum = 0, then
compute the checksum on the whole raw inode buffer, and fill in
raw->i_checksum = cpu_to_le32(crc) at the end. That would mean the
caller ext4_inode_csum_verify() should save the original checksum for
comparison with the returned value.
The one problem with this is that it is racy w.r.t other users

This check can be marked unlikely(), since the rare case of a checksum
failure can cause a stall in the execution pipeline. It might make sense
to put the unlikely() at the lone callsite to move the whole function call
overhead out-of-line.

This might warrant a comment to always be the last function before
submitting the inode to the journal.

Also, rather than just making the checksum be updated at commit time, it
makes more sense to have ext4_do_update_inode() only be called once per
commit, since this is an expensive function.
