One problem with this patch is that it creates separate slabs for each
ext4 file system where previously we had a single slab cache for
mbcache entries.  I've tried adding the following patch on top of
yours so that we can retain the previous behavior of creating a single
kmem_cache for all ext4 file systems.

Please comment/review...
