ext4: Add new abstraction ext4_map_blocks() underneath ext4_get_blocks()
Jack up ext4_get_blocks() and add a new function, ext4_map_blocks() which uses a much smaller structure, struct ext4_map_blocks which is 20 bytes, as opposed to a struct buffer_head, which nearly 5 times bigger on an x86_64 machine. By switching things to use ext4_map_blocks(), we can save stack space by using ext4_map_blocks() since we can avoid allocating a struct buffer_head on the stack.
