    xfs: rearrange some code in xfs_bmap for better locality
    
    xfs_bmap.c is a big file, and some of the related code is spread all
    throughout the file requiring function prototypes for static
    function and jumping all through the file to follow a single call
    path. Rearrange the code so that:
    
    	a) related functionality is grouped together; and
    	b) functions are grouped in call dependency order
    
    While the diffstat is large, there are no code changes in the patch;
    it is just moving the functionality around and removing the function
    prototypes at the top of the file. The resulting layout of the code
    is as follows (top of file to bottom):
    
    	- miscellaneous helper functions
    	- extent tree block counting routines
    	- debug/sanity checking code
    	- bmap free list manipulation functions
    	- inode fork format manipulation functions
    	- internal/external extent tree seach functions
    	- extent tree manipulation functions used during allocation
    	- functions used during extent read/allocate/removal
    	  operations (i.e. xfs_bmapi_write, xfs_bmapi_read,
    	  xfs_bunmapi and xfs_getbmap)
    
    This means that following logic paths through the bmapi code is much
    simpler - most of the code relevant to a specific operation is now
    clustered together rather than spread all over the file....

    xfs: rename random32() to prandom_u32()
    
    Use more preferable function name which implies using a pseudo-random
    number generator.

    xfs: don't verify buffers after IO errors
    
    When we read a buffer, we might get an error from the underlying
    block device and not the real data. Hence if we get an IO error, we
    shouldn't run the verifier but instead just pass the IO error
    straight through.

    xfs: fix xfs_iomap_eof_prealloc_initial_size type
    
    Fix the return type of xfs_iomap_eof_prealloc_initial_size() to
    xfs_fsblock_t to reflect the fact that the return value may be an
    unsigned 64 bits if XFS_BIG_BLKNOS is defined.

    xfs: increase prealloc size to double that of the previous extent
    
    The updated speculative preallocation algorithm for handling sparse
    files can becomes less effective in situations with a high number of
    concurrent, sequential writers. The number of writers and amount of
    available RAM affect the writeback bandwidth slicing algorithm,
    which in turn affects the block allocation pattern of XFS. For
    example, running 32 sequential writers on a system with 32GB RAM,
    preallocs become fixed at a value of around 128MB (instead of
    steadily increasing to the 8GB maximum as sequential writes
    proceed).
    
    Update the speculative prealloc heuristic to base the size of the
    next prealloc on double the size of the preceding extent. This
    preserves the original aggressive speculative preallocation
    behavior and continues to accomodate sparse files at a slight cost
    of increasing the size of preallocated data regions following holes
    of sparse files.

    xfs: fix potential infinite loop in xfs_iomap_prealloc_size()
    
    If freesp == 0, we could end up in an infinite loop while squashing
    the preallocation. Break the loop when we've killed the prealloc
    entirely.
