Chandan Babu R 3015196746 xfs: Introduce error injection to allocate only minlen size extents for files
This commit adds XFS_ERRTAG_BMAP_ALLOC_MINLEN_EXTENT error tag which
helps userspace test programs to get xfs_bmap_btalloc() to always
allocate minlen sized extents.

This is required for test programs which need a guarantee that minlen
extents allocated for a file do not get merged with their existing
neighbours in the inode's BMBT. "Inode fork extent overflow check" for
Directories, Xattrs and extension of realtime inodes need this since the
file offset at which the extents are being allocated cannot be
explicitly controlled from userspace.

One way to use this error tag is to,
1. Consume all of the free space by sequentially writing to a file.
2. Punch alternate blocks of the file. This causes CNTBT to contain
   sufficient number of one block sized extent records.
3. Inject XFS_ERRTAG_BMAP_ALLOC_MINLEN_EXTENT error tag.
After step 3, xfs_bmap_btalloc() will issue space allocation
requests for minlen sized extents only.

ENOSPC error code is returned to userspace when there aren't any "one
block sized" extents left in any of the AGs.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
