    ext4: FLEX_BG Kernel support v2. · ce421581

    This feature relaxes check restrictions on where each block groups meta
    data is located within the storage media.  This allows for the allocation
    of bitmaps or inode tables outside the block group boundaries in cases
    where bad blocks forces us to look for new blocks which the owning block
    group can not satisfy.  This will also allow for new meta-data allocation
    schemes to improve performance and scalability.
