Extend functions for starting, extending, and restarting transaction handles to take number of revoke records handle must be able to accommodate. These functions then make sure transaction has enough credits to be able to store resulting revoke descriptor blocks. Also revoke code tracks number of revoke records created by a handle to catch situation where some place didn't reserve enough space for revoke records. Similarly to standard transaction credits, space for unused reserved revoke records is released when the handle is stopped. On the ext4 side we currently take a simplistic approach of reserving space for 1024 revoke records for any transaction. This grows amount of credits reserved for each handle only by a few and is enough for any normal workload so that we don't hit warnings in jbd2. We will refine the logic in following commits.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
