ext3: speed up file creates by optimizing rec_len functions The addition of 64k block capability in the rec_len_from_disk and rec_len_to_disk functions added a bit of math overhead which slows down file create workloads needlessly when the architecture cannot even support 64k blocks, thanks to page size limits. Similar changes already exist in the ext4 codebase. The directory entry checking can also be optimized a bit by sprinkling in some unlikely() conditions to move the error handling out of line. bonnie++ sequential file creates on a 512MB ramdisk speeds up from about 77,000/s to about 82,000/s, about a 6% improvement.
