ext4: Improve scalability of ext4 orphan file handling

Even though the length of the critical section when adding / removing
orphaned inodes was significantly reduced by using orphan file, the
contention of lock protecting orphan file still appears high in profiles
for truncate / unlink intensive workloads with high number of threads.

This patch makes handling of orphan file completely lockless. Also to
reduce conflicts between CPUs different CPUs start searching for empty
slot in orphan file in different blocks.

Performance comparison of locked orphan file handling, lockless orphan
file handling, and completely disabled orphan inode handling
from 80 CPU Xeon Server with 526 GB of RAM, filesystem located on
SAS SSD disk, average of 5 runs:

stress-orphan (microbenchmark truncating files byte-by-byte from N
processes in parallel)

Threads Time            Time            Time
        Orphan locked   Orphan lockless No orphan
  1       0.945600       0.939400        0.891200
  2       1.331800       1.246600        1.174400
  4       1.995000       1.780600        1.713200
  8       6.424200       4.900000        4.106000
 16      14.937600       8.516400        8.138000
 32      33.038200      24.565600       24.002200
 64      60.823600      39.844600       38.440200
128     122.941400      70.950400       69.315000

So we can see that with lockless orphan file handling, addition /
deletion of orphaned inodes got almost completely out of picture even
for a microbenchmark stressing it.

For reaim creat_clo workload on ramdisk there are also noticeable gains
(average of 5 runs):
