Subject: [PATCH] ext4: Fix lack of credits BUG() when deleting a badly
 fragmented inode

The extents codepath for ext4_truncate() requests journal transaction
credits in very small chunks, requesting only what is needed.  This
means there may not be enough credits left on the transaction handle
after ext4_truncate() returns and then when ext4_delete_inode() tries
finish up its work, it may not have enough transaction credits,
causing a BUG() oops in the jbd2 core.

Also, reserve an extra 2 blocks when starting an ext4_delete_inode()
since we need to update the inode bitmap, as well as update the
orphaned inode linked list.
