This reverts commit fc0fc50f38.
The author has asked on the mailing list that we revert this for now as
it breaks write support.

In an ext4 filesystem, the inode corresponding to a file has a 60-byte
area which contains an extent header structure and up to 4 extent
structures (5 x 12 bytes).
For files that need more than 4 extents to be represented (either files
larger than 4 x 128MB = 512MB or smaller files but very fragmented),
ext4 creates extent index structures. Each extent index points to a 4KB
physical block where one extent header and additional 340 extents could
be stored.
The current u-boot ext4 code is very inefficient when it tries to load a
file which has extent indexes. For each logical file block the code will
read over and over again the same blocks of 4096 bytes from the disk.
Since the extent tree in a file is always the same, we can cache the
extent structures in memory before actually starting to read the file.
This patch creates a simple linked list of structures holding information
about all the extents used to represent a file. The list is sorted by
the logical block number (ee_block) so that we can easily find the
proper extent information for any file block.
Without this patch, a 69MB file which had just one extent index pointing
to a block with another 6 extents was read in approximately 3 minutes.
With this patch applied the same file can be read in almost 20 seconds.

This hooks into the generic "file exists" support added in an earlier
patch, and provides an implementation for the ext4 filesystem.

With CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA, lbaint_t gets defined as a 64-bit type,
which is required to represent block numbers for storage devices that
exceed 2TiB (the block size usually is 512B), e.g. recent hard drives
We now use lbaint_t for partition offset to reflect the lbaint_t change,
and access partitions beyond or crossing the 2.1TiB limit.
This required changes to signature of ext4fs_devread(), and type of all
variables relatives to block sector.
ext2/ext4 fs uses logical block represented by a 32 bit value. Logical
block is a multiple of device block sector. To avoid overflow problem
when calling ext4fs_devread(), we need to cast the sector parameter.

The 512 byte block size was hard coded in the ext4 file systems.
Large harddisks today support bigger block sizes typically 4096
bytes.
This patch removes this limitation.

It doesn't make a lot of sense to have these methods in fs.c. They are
filesystem-specific, not generic code. Add each to the relevant
filesystem and remove the associated #ifdefs in fs.c.

This code seems to be entirely othogonal, so remove the #ifdef and put
the condition in the Makefile instead.

The filename buffer is allocated dynamically. It must be cache aligned.
Moreover, it is necessary to erase its content before we use it for
file name operations.
This prevents from corruption of written file names.

The ext4write code has been using direct calls to 64-32 division
(/ and %).
Officially supported u-boot toolchains (eldk-5.[12].x) generate calls
to __aeabi_uldivmod(), which is niether defined in the toolchain libs
nor u-boot source tree.
Due to that, when the ext4write command has been executed, "undefined
instruction" execption was generated (since the __aeabi_uldivmod()
is not provided).
To fix this error, lldiv() for division and do_div() for modulo have
been used.
Those two functions are recommended for performing 64-32 bit number
division in u-boot.

This makes the FAT and ext4 filesystem implementations build if
CONFIG_FS_{FAT,EXT4} are defined, rather than basing the build on
whether CONFIG_CMD_{FAT,EXT*} are defined. This will allow the
filesystems to be built separately from the filesystem-specific commands
that use them. This paves the way for the creation of filesystem-generic
commands that used the filesystems, without requiring the filesystem-
specific commands.
Minor documentation changes are made for this change.
The new config options are automatically selected by the old config
options to retain backwards-compatibility.

On x86 machines gd is unfortunately a #define, so we should avoid using
gd for anything. This patch changes uses of gd to bgd so that ext4fs
can be used on x86.
A better fix would be to remove the #define in x86, but I'm not sure
how to do that.

Convert ext2/4 load, ls, and write functions to use common device and
partition parsing function. With the common function "dev:part" can come
from the environment and a '-' can be used in that case.
