[PATCH, needs a new owner] XFS Alloc Policies

[Mark Goodwin]

Series of patches, originally by Dave Chinner. This series
of 18 patches is unfinished and needs a new owner - the
feature partially implements pluggable allocation policies
for XFS.

A fairly substantial architectural write-up with community
debate/feedback on the design would be appropriate before
embarking on this. Tarball attached for the following:
