ext4: Ensure ext4_mb_prefetch_fini() is called for all prefetched BGs
Before this patch, the call stack in ext4_run_li_request is as follows: /* * nr = no. of BGs we want to fetch (=s_mb_prefetch) * prefetch_ios = no. of BGs not uptodate after * ext4_read_block_bitmap_nowait() */ next_group = ext4_mb_prefetch(sb, group, nr, prefetch_ios); ext4_mb_prefetch_fini(sb, next_group prefetch_ios); ext4_mb_prefetch_fini() will only try to initialize buddies for BGs in range [next_group - prefetch_ios, next_group). This is incorrect since sometimes (prefetch_ios < nr), which causes ext4_mb_prefetch_fini() to incorrectly ignore some of the BGs that might need initialization. This issue is more notable now with the previous patch enabling "fetching" of BLOCK_UNINIT BGs which are marked buffer_uptodate by default. Fix this by passing nr to ext4_mb_prefetch_fini() instead of prefetch_ios so that it considers the right range of groups. Similarly, make sure we don't pass nr=0 to ext4_mb_prefetch_fini() in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() since we might have prefetched BLOCK_UNINIT groups that would need buddy initialization.
