ext4: cleanup ext4_ext_grow_indepth code
Currently code make an impression what grow procedure is very complicated
and some mythical paths, blocks are involved. But in fact grow in depth
it relatively simple procedure:
1) Just create new meta block and copy root data to that block.
2) Convert root from extent to index if old depth == 0
3) Update root block pointer
This patch does:
- Reorganize code to make it more self explanatory
- Do not pass path parameter to new_meta_block() in order to
provoke allocation from inode's group because top-level block
should site closer to it's inode, but not to leaf data block.
[ This happens anyway, due to logic in mballoc; we should drop
the path parameter from new_meta_block() entirely. -- tytso ]
