ocfs2: Switch over to JBD2.
ocfs2 wants JBD2 for many reasons, not the least of which is that JBD is
limiting our maximum filesystem size.
It's a pretty trivial change. Most functions are just renamed. The
only functional change is moving to Jan's inode-based ordered data mode.
It's better, too.
Because JBD2 reads and writes JBD journals, this is compatible with any
existing filesystem. It can even interact with JBD-based ocfs2 as long
as the journal is formated for JBD.
We provide a compatibility option so that paranoid people can still use
JBD for the time being. This will go away shortly.
[ Moved call of ocfs2_begin_ordered_truncate() from ocfs2_delete_inode() to
ocfs2_truncate_for_delete(). --Mark ]
