ocfs2: adjust enabling place for la window

Patch series "improve write IO performance when fragmentation is high",
v6.


This patch (of 4):

After introducing gd->bg_contig_free_bits, the code path
'ocfs2_cluster_group_search() => ocfs2_local_alloc_seen_free_bits()'
becomes death when all the gd->bg_contig_free_bits are set to the correct
value.  This patch relocates ocfs2_local_alloc_seen_free_bits() to a more
appropriate location.  (The new place being ocfs2_block_group_set_bits().)

In ocfs2_local_alloc_seen_free_bits(), the scope of the spin-lock has been
adjusted to reduce meaningless lock races.  e.g: when userspace creates &
deletes 1 cluster_size files in parallel, acquiring the spin-lock in
ocfs2_local_alloc_seen_free_bits() is totally pointless and impedes IO
performance.
