Previously you have mentioned 2 or 3 methods in which ext4 could support 
atomic writes. To avoid doubt, is this patch for the "Add intelligence 
in multi-block allocator of ext4 to provide aligned allocations (this 
option won't require any formatting)" method mentioned at 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/8734tb0xx7.fsf@doe.com/

and same as method 3 at 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/cover.1709356594.git.ritesh.list@gmail.com/? 


Thanks,
John
