Suraj Jitindar Singh da9008da96 ext4: allow for the last group to be marked as trimmed
commit 7c784d6248 upstream.

The ext4 filesystem tracks the trim status of blocks at the group
level.  When an entire group has been trimmed then it is marked as
such and subsequent trim invocations with the same minimum trim size
will not be attempted on that group unless it is marked as able to be
trimmed again such as when a block is freed.

Currently the last group can't be marked as trimmed due to incorrect
logic in ext4_last_grp_cluster(). ext4_last_grp_cluster() is supposed
to return the zero based index of the last cluster in a group. This is
then used by ext4_try_to_trim_range() to determine if the trim
operation spans the entire group and as such if the trim status of the
group should be recorded.

ext4_last_grp_cluster() takes a 0 based group index, thus the valid
values for grp are 0..(ext4_get_groups_count - 1). Any group index
less than (ext4_get_groups_count - 1) is not the last group and must
have EXT4_CLUSTERS_PER_GROUP(sb) clusters. For the last group we need
to calculate the number of clusters based on the number of blocks in
the group. Finally subtract 1 from the number of clusters as zero
based indexing is expected.  Rearrange the function slightly to make
it clear what we are calculating and returning.

Reproducer:
// Create file system where the last group has fewer blocks than
// blocks per group
$ mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 -g 8192 /dev/nvme0n1 8191
$ mount /dev/nvme0n1 /mnt

Before Patch:
$ fstrim -v /mnt
/mnt: 25.9 MiB (27156480 bytes) trimmed
// Group not marked as trimmed so second invocation still discards blocks
$ fstrim -v /mnt
/mnt: 25.9 MiB (27156480 bytes) trimmed

After Patch:
fstrim -v /mnt
/mnt: 25.9 MiB (27156480 bytes) trimmed
// Group marked as trimmed so second invocation DOESN'T discard any blocks
fstrim -v /mnt
/mnt: 0 B (0 bytes) trimmed

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.
