 * More or less lifted from ext3. I'll leave their description below:

 * "For ext3 allocations, we must not reuse any blocks which are
 * allocated in the bitmap buffer's "last committed data" copy.  This
 * prevents deletes from freeing up the page for reuse until we have
 * committed the delete transaction.
 *
 * If we didn't do this, then deleting something and reallocating it as
 * data would allow the old block to be overwritten before the
 * transaction committed (because we force data to disk before commit).
 * This would lead to corruption if we crashed between overwriting the
 * data and committing the delete.
 *
 * @@@ We may want to make this allocation behaviour conditional on
 * data-writes at some point, and disable it for metadata allocations or
 * sync-data inodes."
 *
 * Note: OCFS2 already does this differently for metadata vs data
 * allocations, as those bitmaps are separate and undo access is never
 * called on a metadata group descriptor.
