fs: Remove ext3 filesystem driver

The functionality of ext3 is fully supported by ext4 driver. Major
distributions (SUSE, RedHat) already use ext4 driver to handle ext3
filesystems for quite some time. There is some ugliness in mm resulting
from jbd cleaning buffers in a dirty page without cleaning page dirty
bit and also support for buffer bouncing in the block layer when stable
pages are required is there only because of jbd. So let's remove the
ext3 driver. This saves us some 28k lines of duplicated code.

-config EXT3_FS
-	tristate "Ext3 journalling file system support"
-	select JBD
-	help
-	  This is the journalling version of the Second extended file system
-	  (often called ext3), the de facto standard Linux file system
-	  (method to organize files on a storage device) for hard disks.
-
-	  The journalling code included in this driver means you do not have
-	  to run e2fsck (file system checker) on your file systems after a
-	  crash.  The journal keeps track of any changes that were being made
-	  at the time the system crashed, and can ensure that your file system
-	  is consistent without the need for a lengthy check.
-
-	  Other than adding the journal to the file system, the on-disk format
-	  of ext3 is identical to ext2.  It is possible to freely switch
-	  between using the ext3 driver and the ext2 driver, as long as the
-	  file system has been cleanly unmounted, or e2fsck is run on the file
-	  system.
-
-	  To add a journal on an existing ext2 file system or change the
-	  behavior of ext3 file systems, you can use the tune2fs utility ("man
-	  tune2fs").  To modify attributes of files and directories on ext3
-	  file systems, use chattr ("man chattr").  You need to be using
-	  e2fsprogs version 1.20 or later in order to create ext3 journals
-	  (available at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/e2fsprogs/>).
-
-	  To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
-	  module will be called ext3.
-
-config EXT3_DEFAULTS_TO_ORDERED
-	bool "Default to 'data=ordered' in ext3"
-	depends on EXT3_FS
-	default y
-	help
-	  The journal mode options for ext3 have different tradeoffs
-	  between when data is guaranteed to be on disk and
-	  performance.	The use of "data=writeback" can cause
-	  unwritten data to appear in files after an system crash or
-	  power failure, which can be a security issue.	 However,
-	  "data=ordered" mode can also result in major performance
-	  problems, including seconds-long delays before an fsync()
-	  call returns.	 For details, see:
-
-	  http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext3_data_mode_tradeoffs
-
-	  If you have been historically happy with ext3's performance,
-	  data=ordered mode will be a safe choice and you should
-	  answer 'y' here.  If you understand the reliability and data
-	  privacy issues of data=writeback and are willing to make
-	  that trade off, answer 'n'.
-
-config EXT3_FS_XATTR
-	bool "Ext3 extended attributes"
-	depends on EXT3_FS
-	default y
-	help
-	  Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated with inodes by
-	  the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page, or visit
-	  <http://acl.bestbits.at/> for details).
-
-	  If unsure, say N.
-
-	  You need this for POSIX ACL support on ext3.
-
-config EXT3_FS_POSIX_ACL
-	bool "Ext3 POSIX Access Control Lists"
-	depends on EXT3_FS_XATTR
-	select FS_POSIX_ACL
-	help
-	  Posix Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and
-	  groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme.
-
-	  To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the Posix ACLs for
-	  Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>.
-
-	  If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N
-
-config EXT3_FS_SECURITY
-	bool "Ext3 Security Labels"
-	depends on EXT3_FS_XATTR
-	help
-	  Security labels support alternative access control models
-	  implemented by security modules like SELinux.  This option
-	  enables an extended attribute handler for file security
-	  labels in the ext3 filesystem.
-
-	  If you are not using a security module that requires using
-	  extended attributes for file security labels, say N.
