They haven't been implemented yet. They've been discussed on the ext4
mailing list, however. Basically, the Orlov algorithm was disabled
for flex_bg, and I want to optimize how directory blocks are allocated
to hopefully speed up fsck times a tad bit more. The design has been
roughly worked out; but it's a matter of me finding time to code and
test it...
