We reverted that patch because it was breaking ext4 write support. I initially
developed the patch on top of an older u-boot which didn't have write supoort
at all.

I have tried to refactor my patch to work with both read/write, but I gave up
when I saw that the ext4 write code relied on the old behavior of
read_allocated_block/ext4fs_get_extent_block. I could have worked around that,
but then the whole thing would have looked like hack, so I didn't like it ...

If you are interested in a current version of this patch, I could try to
revive it. But it has the limitation I mentioned above, so I guess you could
use it just for some ext4 read performance measurement test.

Regards,
Ioan
