This is v2 of atomic write enablement on ext4 for DIO. I have split this series
as discussed in v1 [1], so this only enables atomic writes to a single fsblock.
That means for now this gets only enabled on bs < ps systems on ext4.
Enablement of atomic writes for bigalloc (multi-fsblock support) is still
under discussion and may require general consensus within the filesystem
community [1].

This series adds the base feature support to enable atomic writes in
direct-io path for ext4. We advertise the minimum and the maximum atomic
write unit sizes via statx on a regular file.

This series allows users to utilize atomic write support using -
1. on bs < ps systems via - mkfs.ext4 -F -b 16384 /dev/sda

This can then be utilized using -
	xfs_io -fdc "pwrite -V 1 -A -b16k 0 16k" /mnt/f1

This is built on top of John's DIO atomic write series for XFS [2].
The VFS and block layer enablement for atomic writes were merged already.
