I tried Suparna's mpage_writepages_getblocks patch with my ext3_get_blocks patch, seems to work fine, except that still only one block is allocated at a time. I got a little confused....
I did not see any delayed allocation code in your patch, I assume you have to update ext3_prepare_write to not call ext3_get_block, so that block allocation will be defered at ext3_writepages time. So without the delayed allocation part, the get_blocks in mpage_writepages is doing multiple blocks look up only, right?
