In btrfs, blocksize, the basic IO size of the filesystem, has been
more than PAGE_SIZE.

But, some 64 bit architures, like PPC64 and ARM64 have the default
PAGE_SIZE as 64K, which means the filesystems handled in these
architectures are with a blocksize of 64K.

This works fine as long as you create and use the filesystems within
these systems.

In other words, one cannot create a filesystem in some other architecture
and use that filesystem in PPC64 or ARM64, and vice versa.,

Another restriction is that we cannot use ext? filesystems in these
architectures as btrfs filesystems, since ext? filesystems have a blocksize
of 4K.

Sometime last year, Wade Cline posted a patch(http://lwn.net/Articles/529682/).
I started testing it, and found many locking/race issues. So, I changed the
logic and created an extent_buffer_head that holds an array of extent buffers that
belong to a page.

There are few wrinkles in this patchset, like some xfstests are failing, which
could be due to me doing something incorrectly w.r.t how the blocksize and
PAGE_SIZE are used in these patched.

Would like to get some feedback, review comments.

Thanks,

Chandra
