though the goal_to_be_moved will be validated again in following moving, it's
still a good idea to validate it after adjustment at the very beginning, instead
of validating it before adjustment.

It's not wise enough to do a 64bits division anywhere in kernside, replace it
with a decent helper or proper shifts.

We're going to support partial extent moving, which may split entire extent
movement into pieces to compromise the insuffice allocations, it eases the
'ENSPC' pain and makes the whole moving much less likely to fail, the downside
is it may make the fs even more fragmented before moving, just let the userspace
make a trade-off here.

the basic logic of moving extents for a file is pretty like punching-hole
sequence, walk the extents within the range as user specified, calculating
an appropriate len to defrag/move, then let ocfs2_defrag/move_extent() to
do the actual moving.
This func ends up setting 'OCFS2_MOVE_EXT_FL_COMPLETE' to userpace if operation
gets done successfully.

The helper is to calculate the defrag length in one run according to a threshold,
it will proceed doing defragmentation until the threshold was meet, and skip a
LARGE extent if any.

ocfs2_move_extent() logic will validate the goal_offset_in_block,
where extents to be moved, what's more, it also compromises a bit
to probe the appropriate region around given goal_offset when the
original goal is not able to fit the movement.

Before doing the movement of extents, we'd better probe the alloc group from
'goal_blk' for searching a contiguous region to fit the wanted movement, we
even will have a best-effort try by compromising to a threshold around the
given goal.

First best-effort attempt to validate and adjust the goal (physical address in
block), while it can't guarantee later operation can succeed all the time since
global_bitmap may change a bit over time.

This function tries locate the right alloc group, where a given physical block
resides, it returns the caller a buffer_head of victim group descriptor, and also
the offset of block in this group, by passing the block number.

It's a relatively complete function to accomplish defragmentation for entire
or partial extent, one journal handle was kept during the operation, it was
logically doing one more thing than ocfs2_move_extent() acutally, yes, it's
claiming the new clusters itself;-)

The moving range of __ocfs2_move_extent() was within one extent always, it
consists following parts:
1. Duplicates the clusters in pages to new_blkoffset, where extent to be moved.
2. Split the original extent with new extent, coalecse the nearby extents if possible.
3. Append old clusters to truncate log, or decrease_refcount if the extent was refcounted.

ocfs2_lock_allocators_move_extents() was like the common ocfs2_lock_allocators(),
to lock metadata and data alloctors during extents moving, reserve appropriate
metadata blocks and data clusters, also performa a best- effort to calculate the
credits for journal transaction in one run of movement.
