d4eb6dee47 ext4: Update EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT2 description
Configuration option EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT2 has no effect on ext3 support.
Support for ext3 is always included now.

c8962f4be4 ext4: Improve ext4 Kconfig test
Now that ext4 driver must be used to access ext3 filesystems, improve
the Kconfig help text to better explain that using ext4 driver to access
the filesystem is fully compatible with the old ext3 driver.

c290ea01ab fs: Remove ext3 filesystem driver
The functionality of ext3 is fully supported by ext4 driver. Major
distributions (SUSE, RedHat) already use ext4 driver to handle ext3
filesystems for quite some time. There is some ugliness in mm resulting
from jbd cleaning buffers in a dirty page without cleaning page dirty
bit and also support for buffer bouncing in the block layer when stable
pages are required is there only because of jbd. So let's remove the
ext3 driver. This saves us some 28k lines of duplicated code.

71dea01ea2 ext4 crypto: require CONFIG_CRYPTO_CTR if ext4 encryption is enabled
On arm64 this is apparently needed for CTS mode to function correctly.
Otherwise attempts to use CTS return ENOENT.

fb63e5489f ext4 crypto: do not select from EXT4_FS_ENCRYPTION
This patch adds a tristate EXT4_ENCRYPTION to do the selections
for EXT4_FS_ENCRYPTION because selecting from a bool causes all
the selected options to be built-in, even if EXT4 itself is a
module.

96465efee1 ext4: fix configuration dependencies for ext4 ACLs and security labels
Commit "ext4: Remove CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR" removed the configuration
dependencies for ext4 xattrs from the ext4 ACLs and security labels
configuration options, but did not replace them with a dependency on
ext4 itself.  Add back the dependency on ext4 so the options only show
up if ext4 is enabled.

939da10844 ext4: Remove CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR
Ted has sent out a RFC about removing this feature. Eric and Jan
confirmed that both RedHat and SUSE enable this feature in all their
product.  David also said that "As far as I know, it's enabled in all
Android kernels that use ext4."  So it seems OK for us.

And what's more, as inline data depends its implementation on xattr,
and to be frank, I don't run any test again inline data enabled while
xattr disabled.  So I think we should add inline data and remove this
config option in the same release.

[ The savings if you disable CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR is only 27k, which
  isn't much in the grand scheme of things.  Since no one seems to be
  testing this configuration except for some automated compile farms, on
  balance we are better removing this config option, and so that it is
  effectively always enabled. -- tytso ]

b6e3224fb2 Revert "task_struct: make journal_info conditional"
This reverts commit e4c570c4cb, as
requested by Alexey:

 "I think I gave a good enough arguments to not merge it.
  To iterate:
   * patch makes impossible to start using ext3 on EXT3_FS=n kernels
     without reboot.
   * this is done only for one pointer on task_struct"

  None of config options which define task_struct are tristate directly
  or effectively."

24b584240a ext4: Use ext4 file system driver for ext2/ext3 file system mounts
Add a new config option, CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23 which if enabled,
will cause ext4 to be used for either ext2 or ext3 file system mounts
when ext2 or ext3 is not enabled in the configuration.

This allows minimalist kernel fanatics to drop to file system drivers
from their compiled kernel with out losing functionality.
