+Multiblock allocation history.

+This file indicate whether the multiblock allocator should start collecting

+group_prealloc:
+The multiblock allocator normalize the block allocation request to
+group_prealloc filesystem blocks if we don't have strip value set.
+The stripe value can be specified at mount time or during mke2fs.

+Multiblock allocator use 2^N search using buddies only for requests greater

+Files smaller than stream_req are served by the stream allocator, whose
