ext4: create a new BH_Verified flag to avoid unnecessary metadata validation
Create a new BH_Verified flag to indicate that we've verified all the data in a buffer_head for correctness. This allows us to bypass expensive verification steps when they are not necessary without missing them when they are. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
