 New features for 3.12:
 
 * Added aggressive extent caching using the extent status tree.  This
   can actually decrease memory usage in read-mostly workloads since
   the information is much more compactly stored in the extent status
   tree than if we had to keep the extent tree metadata blocks in the
   buffer cache.  This also improves Asynchronous I/O since it is it
   makes much less likely that we need to do metadata I/O to lookup the
   extent tree information.
 * Improve the recovery after corrupted allocation bitmaps are found
   when running in errors=ignore mode.
 
 Also fixed some writeback vs. truncate races when using a blocksize
 less than the page size.
