When a filesystem is created using: mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 -E stride=512 <dev> and we try to allocate 64MB extent, we will end up directly in ext4_mb_complex_scan_group(). This is because the request is detected as power-of-two allocation (so we start in ext4_mb_regular_allocator() with ac_criteria == 0) however the check before ext4_mb_simple_scan_group() refuses the direct buddy scan because the allocation request is too large. Since cr == 0, the check whether we should use ext4_mb_scan_aligned() fails as well and we fall back to ext4_mb_complex_scan_group(). Fix the problem by checking for upper limit on power-of-two requests directly when detecting them.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
