commit3574c322b1upstream. Currently we don't used mballoc optimized scanning (using max free extent order and avg free extent order group lists) for inodes with indirect block based format. This is confusing for users and I don't see a good reason for that. Even with indirect block based inode format we can spend big amount of time searching for free blocks for large filesystems with fragmented free space. To add to the confusion before commit077d0c2c78("ext4: make mb_optimize_scan performance mount option work with extents") optimized scanning was applied *only* to indirect block based inodes so that commit appears as a performance regression to some users. Just use optimized scanning whenever it is enabled by mount options.
