f2fs: update extent tree in batches

This patch introduce a new helper f2fs_update_extent_tree_range which can
do extent mapping update at a specified range.

The main idea is:
1) punch all mapping info in extent node(s) which are at a specified range;
2) try to merge new extent mapping with adjacent node, or failing that,
   insert the mapping into extent tree as a new node.

In order to see the benefit, I add a function for stating time stamping
count as below:

uint64_t rdtsc(void)
{
	uint32_t lo, hi;
	__asm__ __volatile__ ("rdtsc" : "=a" (lo), "=d" (hi));
	return (uint64_t)hi << 32 | lo;
}

My test environment is: ubuntu, intel i7-3770, 16G memory, 256g micron ssd.

truncation path:	update extent cache from truncate_data_blocks_range
non-truncataion path:	update extent cache from other paths
total:			all update paths

a) Removing 128MB file which has one extent node mapping whole range of
file:
1. dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/f2fs/128M bs=1M count=128
2. sync
3. rm /mnt/f2fs/128M

Before:
		total		count		average
truncation:	7651022		32768		233.49

Patched:
		total		count		average
truncation:	3321		33		100.64

b) fsstress:
fsstress -d /mnt/f2fs -l 5 -n 100 -p 20
Test times:		5 times.

Before:
		total		count		average
truncation:	5812480.6	20911.6		277.95
non-truncation:	7783845.6	13440.8		579.12
total:		13596326.2	34352.4		395.79

Patched:
		total		count		average
truncation:	1281283.0	3041.6		421.25
non-truncation:	7355844.4	13662.8		538.38
total:		8637127.4	16704.4		517.06

1) For the updates in truncation path:
 - we can see updating in batches leads total tsc and update count reducing
   explicitly;
 - besides, for a single batched updating, punching multiple extent nodes
   in a loop, result in executing more operations, so our average tsc
   increase intensively.
2) For the updates in non-truncation path:
 - there is a little improvement, that is because for the scenario that we
   just need to update in the head or tail of extent node, new interface
   optimize to update info in extent node directly, rather than removing
   original extent node for updating and then inserting that updated one
   into cache as new node.
