Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4

Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o:
 "Mostly performance and bug fixes, plus some cleanups.  The one new
  feature this merge window is a new ioctl EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT which
  allows installation of a hidden inode designed for boot loaders."
